Section E Inspection and Acceptance

FAR 52.246-4 Inspection of Services – Fixed-Price (AUG 1996)

E.1 Inspection by the Government

The Government has the right to inspect the posts manned by the Contractor’s personnel. The COTR will note deficiencies and refer them to the Contractor for corrective action. After taking corrective action, the Contractor shall inform the COTR in writing. The Government has the right to inspect all services and work that is performed by the Contractor. The Government has the right to review, collect, or seize documents, materials, logs, books, reports, and equipment. The Government has the right to test equipment and tools used by the Contractor, or its employees. The Government will not unduly disrupt or delay Contractor work when inspecting.

E.2 Methodology to Be Used to Monitor the Contractor’s Performance 100 Percent Inspection: This is the most appropriate method for tasks with stringent performance requirements, e.g., where safety or health is a concern. With this method, performance is inspected and evaluated at each occurrence.

Random Sampling: This is the most appropriate method for frequently recurring tasks. With random sampling, services are sampled sporadically to determine if the level of performance is acceptable.

Planned Inspection: This method is appropriate to evaluate tasks at a set time.

Customer Complaint: This method is based on subjective opinions regarding performance standards and includes data elements necessary to begin an investigation. Any required service can have a valid Customer Compliant as an alternative method of surveillance.

E.3 Quality Assurance Surveillance Plan (QASP)

The Quality Assurance Surveillance Plan (QASP – Attachment 4) sets forth the procedures and guidelines that ICE will use to inspect the technical performance of the Contractor. It presents the financial values and mechanisms for applying adjustments to the Contractor’s invoices as dictated by work performance measured to the desired level of accomplishment. The purpose of the QASP is to:

1. Define the roles and responsibilities of participating Government Officials.

2. Define the types of work to be performed.

3. Describe the evaluation methods that will be employed by the Government in accessing the Contractor’s performance.

4. Describe the process of performance documentation.

(ii) Within 60 to 120 days prior to the date specified in the contract for exercising any option thereafter.

The small business size standard corresponding to this NAICS code can be found at http://www.sba.gov/services/contractingopportunities/sizestandardstopics/.

(d) The small business size standard for a Contractor providing a product which it does not manufacture itself, for a contract other than a construction or service contract, is 500 employees.

(e) Except as provided in paragraph (g) of this clause, the Contractor shall make the representation required by paragraph (b) of this clause by validating or updating all its representations in the Online Representations and Certifications Application and its data in the Central Contractor Registration, as necessary, to ensure that they reflect the Contractor’s current status. The Contractor shall notify the contracting office in writing within the timeframes specified in paragraph (b) of this clause that the data have been validated or updated, and provide the date of the validation or update.

(f) If the Contractor represented that it was other than a small business concern prior to award of this contract, the Contractor may, but is not required to, take the actions required by paragraphs (e) or (g) of this clause.

(g) If the Contractor does not have representations and certifications in ORCA, or does not have a representation in ORCA for the NAICS code applicable to this contract, the Contractor is required to complete the following representation and submit it to the contracting office, along with the contract number and the date on which the representation was completed: The Contractor represents that it ___ is, ___ is not a small business concern under NAICS Code 561612 assigned to contract number To be determined.

(3) The expanded affiliated group which after the acquisition includes the entity does not have substantial business activities in the foreign country in which or under the law of which the entity is created or organized when compared to the total business activities of such expanded affiliated group.

(c) Special rules. The following definitions and special rules shall apply when determining whether a foreign incorporated entity should be treated as an inverted domestic corporation.
