8.1 Quality Control Program: The QC program is the driver for product quality. The contractor is required to develop a comprehensive program of inspections and monitoring actions. The first major step in ensuring a “self-correcting” contract is to ensure that the quality control program approved at the beginning of the contract provides the measures needed to lead the Contractor to success. Once the QC program is approved, careful application of the process and standards presented in the remainder of this document will ensure a robust quality assurance program.

The QCP shall assure that the requirements of the contract are met. The COR will approve any changes to the QCP prior to the Contractor implementing them. If the COR perceives such changes to be other than minor, approval by the KO is necessary.

8.3 Quality Control Program/Inspection System: The QC system shall encompass all functions of the contract. It must specify areas to be inspected, on either a scheduled or unscheduled basis, and list the title(s) of the individual(s) conducting the inspection. The

The QC program/inspection system shall be designed to keep the Contractor’s management and the Coast Guard informed of all issues affecting quality, to include timely and effective corrective actions. The QC records shall, in part, consist of checklists of inspections and shall indicate the nature, frequency, and number of observations made, the number and type of deficiencies found, and the nature of corrective action taken, as appropriate. The Contractor shall ensure that QC includes timely and effective corrective action for all deficiencies identified by the Government.
