Each defect observed will be recorded on the tally report. These documents will then become a formal record for later reference. The tally of defects at the end of each year (dependent on criteria) will be compared to the acceptable number of defects appearing in the surveillance plan. Errors detected by the PO in the course of surveillance will be transmitted to the Contractor or in-house personnel for correction. Notification of errors will take place within five (5) working days. Specifics concerning any errors should be recorded on the tally checklist. The Contractor or in-house personnel, as applicable, should be asked to initial this record.

Project Officer shall forward a copy of Contractor’s compliance with performance and non- performance compliance reports

• Quality Assurance Surveillance Plan (QASP):

The Government shall monitor the Contractors’ performance through a Quality Assurance Surveillance Plan (QASP).
