About this file
This is a Quality Control specification document issued by the State of California Military Department for minor construction projects, establishing comprehensive quality control requirements and procedures that contractors must follow. The specification mandates that contractors establish and maintain a Quality Control (QC) program consisting of a dedicated QC Manager, a detailed QC plan, coordination meetings, and three phases of control (preparatory, initial, and follow-up) for each definable feature of work. The QC Manager must possess a minimum of five years of combined experience as a superintendent, inspector, QC manager, project manager, or construction manager on similar construction contracts and must complete Construction Quality Management training. Contractors must submit a QC plan within 15 calendar days of receiving the Notice of Award, and this plan requires government approval before construction commences. The specification establishes mandatory submission deadlines for quality control reports, testing plans, and documentation, with original and one copy of the Contractor Quality Control (CQC) Report due by 10:00 AM the next working day after work is performed. The QC Manager must attend weekly meetings with the superintendent and foreman to review schedules, submittals, and quality issues, and must conduct punch-out inspections, pre-final inspections, and coordinate final acceptance inspections with government representatives.
Testing must be performed by accredited laboratories with appropriate certifications from recognized accreditation authorities including NVLAP, AASHTO, IAS, or the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers Materials Testing Center, with test results clearly marked as "CONFORMS" or "DOES NOT CONFORM" to specifications. The QC Manager must maintain comprehensive documentation including preparatory and initial phase checklists, testing plans and logs, rework items lists, and as-built drawings in three-ring binders organized by specification section and readily available to the government's Quality Assurance Team. All work and testing are prohibited unless the QC Manager is present on site, and the Contracting Officer reserves the right to require removal of personnel and modifications to the QC plan as necessary. The specification applies to both on-site and off-site work and requires notification to the Contracting Officer at least two work days in advance of preparatory phases, two work days in advance of initial phases, and two weeks in advance for off-site work phases. Any proposed changes to the QC organization or personnel require written notification at least seven calendar days prior to implementation and are subject to Contracting Officer approval.

A Government pre-final punch list may be developed as a result of this inspection. The QC Manager must ensure that all items on this list are corrected prior to notifying the Government that a "Final" inspection with the customer can be scheduled. Any items noted on the "Pre-Final" inspection must be corrected in a timely manner and must be accomplished before the contract completion date for the work or any particular increment thereof if the project is divided into increments by separate completion dates.
1.13.3 Final Acceptance Inspection
The QC Manager, the superintendent, or other Contractor management personnel and the Contracting Officer will be in attendance at this inspection. Additional Government personnel may be in attendance. The final acceptance inspection will be formally scheduled by the Contracting Officer based upon results of the "Pre-Final Inspection".
