GSA Contract # TBD Operations & Maintenance Enterprise
QASP Updated Publication 1 March 2013
7 | P a g e to assure task order compliance and to protect the Medical Treatment Facilities’ infrastructure assets.
3.2.1. Surveillance: It is essential a checklist inspection be done for an effective quality assurance system.
3.2.1.1. Checklist Inspection: Record the results of the inspection on the applicable QAE Periodic Surveillance Checklist (attachment 1). This document becomes an official government record of the Contractor's performance. If a surveillance observation results in a defect, the COR/QAE must document the specific reason for the unacceptable performance on the QAE surveillance checklist. The COR must provide a copy to the contractor and evaluate if the nonconformity require the submission of a PAR see 3.4.
3.2.1.2. Corrective actions on discrepancies: Contractor will immediately correct any discrepancies identified during the QAE’s inspection. If a discrepancy cannot be corrected at the time of inspection the contractor will provide a “make well” date that is reasonable and acceptable to the COR. The contractor will document on the checklist all corrective actions taken to resolve the discrepancies or an acceptable “make well” date.
3.2.1.3. If the number of defects recorded on the checklist exceeds the Acceptable Performance Objectives (Section 3.3), the COR/QAE will make an initial determination of the possible cause of unsatisfactory performance. If any Government action or lack of action caused unacceptable performance, these defects are not counted against the Contractor’s performance. The COR/QAE will share with the Contractor and document on the Surveillance Checklist the reasons for the defects. The Contractor must manage the corrective actions deemed necessary to deliver the task order requirements.
3.2.1.4 If performance is judged unacceptable, the COR/QAE will initiate a PAR with findings and submit it to the GSA Contracting Officer and AFMSA SRM PM. The COR will determine if a PAR is initiated in any given situation depending on the circumstances and seriousness of the situation.
3.2.1.5 The COR will maintain file copies of the PARs and reports submitted. File copies are kept for a minimum of 6 years regardless if the contract is in force or turnover in contractors has occurred.
3.2.2. Business Relations. Defined as efficient and effective quality communication with the government. This includes but is not limited to after action reports from surveys, requested information/reports in support of the PWS, technical instruction processing/documentation, etc.
3.2.3. Management of Key Personnel. Defined as the ability to provide appropriate staffing in management, supervision and employees at all times to include those positions directly identified in the PWS. Note: Staffing for employees refers to the duty

3.2.4. Cost Control. Defined as contractor efforts to provide competitive pricing for parts, material, and other reimbursable costs to the government
3.2.4. External Assessments. Are accomplished by entities outside of the COR/QAE such as Customer Complaints, Contract Management audits, The Joint Commission, Accreditation Association for Ambulatory Health Care, etc. Reports are provided to the COR for review and necessary action. PARs with Findings may be issued for deficiencies when within the scope of the PWS.
3.3. Performance Objectives (PO) and Assessment Items (AI). The POs listed in Table 1 identifies the performance assessed. AIs are identified in Table 2.
3.3.1. Each AI has a corresponding performance threshold which is the minimum acceptable performance level.
3.3.2. The government maintains the right to assess all contract requirements to the extent practicable but will make every attempt not to delay the contractor's workflow.

3.4. MONTHLY PERFORMANCE ASSESSMENT REPORT (PAR). The PAR
(Attachment 2) is used to document contractor discrepancies which may require CO involvement. PAR Section I is used to document monthly assessment results. PAR Section II is used to document nonconformities identified during a COR assessment.
When a PAR Section II is used to document nonconformity, it is known as a PAR with Findings. Table 3 outlines the PAR with Findings process.
3.4.1. Monthly Grading. Grading of services, cost control, business relations and management of key personnel
3.4.1.1. Excellent: Performance meets contractual requirements and exceeds many to the government’s benefit. The contractual performance of the element or sub-element being assessed was accomplished with few minor problems for which corrective actions taken by the contractor was highly effective. Note: to justify this rating identify multiple significant events and state how they were of benefit to the government. A significant benefit could be of such magnitude that it alone constitutes an Excellent rating. Also, there should have been NO significant weaknesses identified.
3.4.1.2. Satisfactory: Performance meets contractual requirements. The contractual performance of the element or sub-element contains some minor problems for which corrective actions taken by the contractor appear or were satisfactory. Note: To justify this rating, there should have only been minor problems or major problems that the contractor recovered from without impact to the contract. There should have been NO significant weaknesses identified. Per DoD policy a fundamental principle of assigning ratings is that contractors will not be assessed a rating lower than Satisfactory solely for not performing beyond the requirements of the contract.
3.4.1.3. Marginal: Performance does not meet some contractual requirements. The contractual performance of the element or sub-element being assessed reflects a serious problem for which the contractor has not yet identified corrective actions. The contractor’s proposed actions appear only marginally effective or were not fully implemented. Note: To justify this rating identify a significant event in one or more category that the contractor had trouble overcoming and state how it impacted the government. A Marginal rating should be supported by referencing the management required service tool that notified the contractor of the contractual deficiency.
GSA Contract # TBD Operations & Maintenance Enterprise
QASP Updated Publication 1 March 2013
11 | P a g e
3.4.1.4. Unsatisfactory: Performance does not meet most contractual requirements and recovery is not likely in a timely manner. The contractual performance of the element or sub-element contains a serious problem(s) for which the contractor’s corrective actions appear or were defective, or continued into the next grading period.
Note: To justify this rating identify one or more significant event(s) in one or more category that the contractor had trouble overcoming and state how it impacted the government. A singular problem could be of serious magnitude that it alone constitutes an unsatisfactory rating. This rating should be supported by referencing the management/required service tool(s) that notified the contractor of the contractual deficiency.
Table 3, PAR with Findings Process
STEP PROCESS SUMMARY
1. COR discovers nonconformity with services. COR researches to confirm nonconformity and begins investigation to determine root cause.
1.1. Investigation includes determination if the contractor has self-identified the nonconformity within their quality system and is taking actions to correct the nonconformity and implement preventive actions.
1.2. If the contractor has self identified, the COR may decide not to issue a PAR with Findings and will monitor for corrective and preventive actions taken by the contractor.
1.3. If the contractor has not self-identified, the COR notifies the CO, AFMSA SRM PM, drafts a PAR with Findings and sends to the GSA PM for review and discussion.
2. CO returns with instructions on how to proceed. CO is final determination authority for issuance of the PAR.
2.1. If the PAR with Findings is issued, the COR reviews the contractor’s response and determines if corrective and preventative actions are acceptable to the government.
2.2. If the contractor’s reply is not acceptable, the CO is notified and begins discussions with the contractor.
2.3.
When the reply is acceptable, the COR closes out the PAR with Findings and provides a copy to the contractor and the COR and AFMSA SRM PM.
3. Results are reported in CPARS as appropriate.
3.5. Types of Nonconformities. There are two types of nonconformities, contractor identified or COR identified.
3.5.1. Contractor Identified Nonconformities. CORs review contractor identified nonconformities to ensure corrective measures are implemented with necessary actions taken to prevent recurrence.
3.5.1.1. A PAR with Findings is not normally issued in cases when contractor has established a timely estimated completion date (ECD) for resolution. CORs monitor the
GSA Contract # TBD Operations & Maintenance Enterprise
QASP Updated Publication 1 March 2013
12 | P a g e contractor’s resolution efforts until the nonconformity has been corrected.
3.5.1.2. A PAR with Findings may be issued in cases where the nonconformity is a repeat nonconformity, the ECD becomes excessive, the contractor fails to follow their Quality Control Plan, or involves safety, environmental, or security issues.
3.5.2. COR Identified Nonconformities. COR documents nonconformities as early as possible upon discovery. Notify the contractor of the suspected nonconformity. Follow the process in Table 3.
3.5.2.1. A PAR with Findings is not normally issued in cases when contractor has established a timely estimated completion date (ECD) for resolution. CORs monitor the contractor’s resolution efforts until the nonconformity has been corrected.
3.5.2.2. A PAR with Findings may be issued in cases where the nonconformity is a repeat nonconformity, the ECD becomes excessive, the contractor fails to follow their Quality Control Plan, or involves safety, environmental, or security issues.
3.6. Performance Assessment Types. Performance Assessment is accomplished in the following ways:
3.6.1. COR Assessment. Assess, document and report the results of the POs and AIs outlined in Table 1 and on the monthly checklist.
3.6.2. Contractor Self Assessments. The contractor assesses their own performance IAW their quality system requirements and maintains documentation of the results IAW the PWS and their quality plan.
3.6.3. External Assessments. CORs review and report on external party assessments to validate performance against PWS requirements. The results of any of these external assessments maybe included in the monthly report.
4. Managing Contract Performance
4.1. Approach. To manage the contract to ensure the contractor is meeting cost, schedule and performance requirements. The COR utilizes performance assessment outcomes and/or other applicable indicators to continuously implement improvements wherever possible. Some methods used to manage contract performance include:
4.2. MFT Team Meeting. COR, AFMSA SRM PM, and GSA PM periodically meet to review on-going issues, requirements, cost, and performance data. GSA PM would record key decisions and distributed via e-mail to applicable MFT members.
5. Reporting Performance Results
GSA Contract # TBD Operations & Maintenance Enterprise
QASP Updated Publication 1 March 2013
13 | P a g e
5.1. Monthly PAR. CORs report performance assessment results in a monthly PAR to the CO and AFMSA SRM PM. The PAR documents performance data and provides feedback to the contractor.
5.2. Contractor Performance Assessment Report (CPAR). The CPAR is an annual report of contractor performance used to document past performance data and to provide this data source selection teams for their use in other acquisitions. Data reported in the COS is used in the preparation of the CPAR.
6. Assessment Records. All assessment documentation will be maintained in the COR’s performance assessment folder. Records are kept a minimum of 6 years regardless if the contract is in force or turnover in contractors has occurred.

INSTRUCTIONS: The PAR is used to document monthly contract performance assessment, and nonconformity with findings. Instructions are included for blocks not self-explanatory.
SECTION I - PERFORMANCE ASSESSMENT. Section I is used to document assessments of contractor performance in compliance with PWS requirements.
Block 4, Finding Category: Check one block only.
No Finding: Performance meets PWS requirements.
Customer Complaint: Documented customer complaint dissatisfied with contractors service or support.
Minor Finding: A departure from established standards having little bearing on service provided. If the same minor finding is repeatedly identified, it may be an indication that a Major Finding has occurred because the Contractor’s quality system has not acted to prevent recurrence. In this case, the Minor Finding may be elevated to the level of a Major Finding and a new PAR initiated.
Major Finding: A conclusion that identifies a condition having a significant adverse effect on the quality of the activity under review such as:
1. Failure to meet a performance threshold.
2. Significant mission degradation in any Contractor operated function.
3. A situation that is likely to result in hazardous or unsafe conditions for
4. Failure to provide adequate corrective action to prevent reoccurrence of government identified findings.
5. Failure of the contractor to provide corrective action to self identified nonconformities in a reasonable time
6. Any failure to adhere to security regulations resulting in a security incident.
Block 5, PWS Reference: Identify the PWS reference if applicable.
Block 7, Performance Assessment: Enter the details and results of the assessment. Avoid pass/fail descriptions of contract performance when possible. If the assessment results in a finding then document the details of the finding and its impact in section II block 13 and 14 respectively.
SECTION II - NONCONFORMITIES IDENTIFIED. Section II is used to document findings identified during an assessment and to request corrective and preventive action through the contracting officer.
Block 10, Control Number: Assigned by the CO as the issuing authority to track all PAR with findings.
Block 12, Suspense Date: CO enters the date the initial response is due from the contractor. This date is for the initial response from the contractor and not necessarily when the corrective action must be complete.
Block 13, Brief Description of the Finding (Include PWS reference): Clearly and briefly, state the details of the finding including the PWS reference and quote. For example:
PWS PARa 3.4 reads: “The contractor shall maintain an MSDS in the work area for all hazardous materials used in the work center.” The contractor did not have the MSDS for “Simple Green” in bldg 100 work area.
Block 14, Finding Impact: Enter the impact the finding has, or could reasonably have, on the mission.
Block 16, COR Assessment to Contractor’s Corrective Action Plan: Indicate if the contractor has corrected the nonconformity and if the preventive actions appear to be sufficient to prevent recurrence.
PAR Continuation Sheet. The PAR continuation sheet may be used to expand upon information in Section I or II.
