1.7. QUALITY CONTROL AND QUALITY ASSURANCE. The Contractor shall implement an effective Quality Control Program.

1.7.1. Quality Control Program (QCP). The contractor is required to control the quality of service, delivery, and offer to the Government for acceptance only services that conform to contract requirements. The contractor is responsible for the delivery of quality services and supplies to the Government. Perfect performance is not required for the control of quality to be satisfactory. Specific service delivery must be in substantial compliance with contract requirements and be suitable for the intended purpose of the contract. The overall control of quality must meet the specified performance thresholds for each required service. The Contractor shall develop and maintain an effective QCP to ensure services are performed in accordance with this PWS. The QCP must be forwarded to and accepted by the Contracting Officer’s Representative (COR). The Contractor’s QCP is a means by which the Contractor assures that the work complies with the requirements of the contract. The QCP shall be delivered no later than thirty (30) calendar days after the contract award date of the base period. When changes are made, an electronic copy of a comprehensive written QCP shall be submitted to the KO and COR within five (5) working days before the effective date of the change.

1.7.2. Quality Assurance. The Government will perform Quality Assurance oversight of the contractor using the Quality Assurance Surveillance Plan (QASP) to ensure acceptable levels of contract performance are achieved. It defines how the performance standards will be applied, the frequency of surveillance, and the minimum acceptable quality level(s) (AQL). Government surveillance of Contractor performance is not limited to the Performance Objectives as outlined in this PWS. If a performance standard was not met or a contract performance was not accomplished, the COR will initiate and provide the Contractor a non-conformance report. The Contractor will be given a time line after notification to correct the deficiency in accordance with requirements of the contract. Deficiencies that cannot be corrected within the identified time line will be reported to the KO.

1.7.3. Quality Assurance Surveillance Plan (QASP). The QASP is compiled utilizing the same performance objectives as identified in the "Performance Requirements Summary (PRS)," (PWS Para. 7.1). The contractor's Quality Control Program and contract performance will be evaluated as shown in the PRS. If re-performance of a service is required, the original inspection results will be recorded as unsatisfactory. When overall monthly performance for a required service meets or exceeds the performance threshold, the rating is satisfactory. Only the original inspection results by the Government will be used to make this evaluation. Failure to meet the performance threshold for a required service means that service for the observation period is unsatisfactory. Each service will be evaluated during each observation period, which is generally one month.

1.7.4. Performance Evaluation Meeting. Performance evaluation meetings may be required when requested by the Government or contractor, refer to para 1.6.8 for additional information.
