Quality compliance will be monitored using the deficiency reporting systems defined in T.O. 00-35D-54, USAF Deficiency Reporting, Investigation and Resolution. The contractor shall be responsible for initially validating customer complaints. However, the Deficiency Reporting Information System (DRIS) Air Force Action Point shall make final determination of the validity of customer complaint(s) in cases of disagreement. Government acceptance of the repaired item will be made at the contractor’s facility and will be documented via Wide Area Work Flow (WAWF), Material Inspection and Receiving Report. No more than one valid PQDR/QDR per contract ordering period (12 months) shall be allowed.

4.5 Delivery of Repair. Adherence to delivery schedules is imperative. There shall be no more than one late delivery per contract year.

6.0 Plan for Corrective Action

6.1 Unsatisfactory Contractor performance will result in the issuance of a negative PAR. The program office will set a suspense date and forward the PAR to the Contracting Officer (CO) for submission to the Contractor. The CO will submit the PAR to the Contractor for corrective action. The Contractor shall explain the deficiency and identify the corrective action they shall take to resolve the deficiency and prevent recurrence. The Contractor shall sign and return a negative PAR to the CO by the suspense date.

6.2 If repetitive negative PARs or a single negative PAR identifying critical Contractor non-compliance are issued without satisfactory resolution, the program office will initiate the corrective action report (CAR) process. However, the Multi-Functional Team (MFT) reserves the right to issue a CAR at any time based on the severity of the Contractor non-compliance. The CO will set a suspense date and submit the CAR to the Contractor for corrective action. The Contractor shall sign and return the CAR, with a corrective action plan, to the CO for acceptance by the MFT by the suspense date. The plan shall include identification of the root cause and a get-well-date. The corrective action will be tracked and documented until the deficiency is https://www.state.gov/bureaus-offices/under-secretary-for-foreign-assistance-humanitarian-affairs-and-religious-freedom/office-to-monitor-and-combat-trafficking-in-persons/

PR: FD2060-27-00004 PWS REVISION: 0 12

resolved to the satisfaction of the MFT. The CAR will become part of the CO contract file. If the CAR process fails to resolve the deficiency, the CO has the right to invoke the Inspection of Supply/Services clause(s) identified in the contract/order.

7.0 Contractor Responsibilities

7.1 The Contractor shall ensure the quality of services through a quality and/or inspection system. In order to meet the government’s quality requirements, a contractor’s QMS should be robust enough and resourced adequately to execute four key quality functions: 1) Detection of quality program problems and defects; 2) Identification of root causes for quality related problems/defects; 3) Correction of root causes related to detected problems/defects; and, 4) Follow-up to ensure quality related problems/defects do not recur; a mature QMS requires the contractor be the proactive party on quality issues. The goal is to obtain performance reflective of continuous improvement with no reliance on DCMA’s surveillance to detect problems/defects, determine root causes, or ensure quality related problems/defects do not recur.

7.2 Maintains an inspection process acceptable to the Government and records of inspections, which shall be made available to the Government as long as the contract requires in accordance with the Inspection of Supply/Services clause(s) identified in the contract/order.

7.3 Responsible for ensuring personnel, information, system, property, facility and, if applicable, international security requirements are met in accordance with the DD Form 254, Department of Defense Contract Security Classification Specification, and applicable Government regulations.

7.4 Signs and returns a positive PAR within five business days. Signs and returns a negative PAR with corrective action identified by the suspense date. Signs and returns a CAR with a corrective action plan by the suspense date.

8.0 Contractor Performance Assessment Reporting System (CPARS): The total estimated value of the contract exceeds $1,000,000.00; therefore, CPARS reporting is required.

8.1 The MFT will evaluate Contractor performance. The Assessing Official Representative (AOR) will review the PARs and other information contained in the COR Online File to prepare and substantiate the CPAR. CPARS will be updated, at a minimum annually, documenting Contractor performance for the contract/order. The MFT should refer to the latest CPARS Guidance for CPAR processes and timelines, https://www.cpars.gov/sysreq.htm. Users can refer to Table 4.9 for the CPARs Timeline, and “Table 1 for the Business Sector, Dollar Threshold and Reviewing Official” information.

8.2 In evaluating the quality of contractor’s performance, the following performance ratings are used in documenting past performance. The areas rated may include: Quality, Schedule, Cost Control (if applicable), Management, Small Business Subcontracting (if applicable), and Regulatory Compliance.

https://www.cpars.gov/sysreq.htm

PR: FD2060-27-00004 PWS REVISION: 0 13

Performance Rating

Criteria

Exceptional Performance meets contractual requirements and exceeds many to the government’s benefits. The contractual performance of the element or sub-element being assessed was accomplished with no problems and contractor actions were highly effective.

Very Good Performance meets contractual requirements and exceeds some to the government benefits. The contractual performance was accomplished with few minor problems for which corrective actions taken by the contractor were effective.

Satisfactory Performance meets contractual requirements. The contractual performance contains some minor problems for which corrective actions taken by the contractor were satisfactory.

Marginal Performance does not meet some contractual requirements. The contractual performance reflects a serious problem for which the contractor has not yet identified corrective actions. The contractor’s proposed actions appear marginally effective or were not fully implemented.

Unsatisfactory Performance does not meet most contractual requirements and recovery is not likely in a timely manner. The contractual performance contains serious problem(s) for which the contractor’s corrective actions appear or were ineffective.
