1. PURPOSE

This Quality Assurance Surveillance Plan (QASP) is a Government developed and applied document used to make sure that systematic quality assurance methods are used in the administration of the Performance

Based Service Contract (PBSC) standards included in this contract and in subsequent task orders issued thereunder. The intent is to ensure that the Contractor performs in accordance with performance metrics set forth in the contract documents, that the Government receives the quality of services called for in the contract and that the Government only pays for the acceptable level of services received. This QASP is intended to be a “living document” that will be revised or modified as circumstances warrant throughout the life of the contract.

2. AUTHORITY

Authority for issuance of this QASP is provided under Contract Section E – Inspection and Acceptance, which provides for inspections and acceptance of the articles, services, and documentation called for in task orders to be accomplished by the Contracting Officer or duly authorized representative.

3. SCOPE

To fully understand the roles and the responsibilities of the parties, it is important to first define the distinction in terminology between the Quality Control Plan and the Quality Assurance Surveillance Plan.

The Contractor, and not the Government, is responsible for management and quality control actions necessary to meet the quality standards set forth by the contract and follow-on task orders. The Contractor manages his Quality Assurance Plan (QAP) for compliance with contract deliverables and then uses the

QAP to guide and to rigorously document the implementation of the required management and quality control actions to achieve the specified results. The QASP on the other hand, is put in place to provide

Government surveillance oversight of the Contractor’s quality control efforts to assure that they are timely, effective and are delivering the results specified in the contract or task order. The QASP is not intended to duplicate the Contractor’s QAP.

4. GOVERNMENT RESOURCES

The following definitions for Government resources are applicable to this plan:

Contracting Officer - A person duly appointed with the authority to enter into, administer, or terminate contracts and make related determinations and findings on behalf of the Government.

Contracting Officer’s Representative (COR) - An individual appointed by the Contracting Officer to act as his authorized representative for the technical administration of specific task order(s) issued under the contract. The duties and limitations of the COR are contained in a written letter of designation and/or in the body of the issued task order.

5. RESPONSIBILITIES

The Government resources shall have responsibilities for the implementation of this QASP as follows:

Contracting Officer – The Contracting Officer ensures performance of all necessary actions for effective contracting, ensures compliance with the terms of the contract and safeguards the interests of the United

States in the contractual relationship. It is the Contracting Officer that assures the Contractor receives impartial, fair, and equitable treatment under the contract. The Contracting Officer is ultimately responsible for the final determination of the adequacy of the Contractor’s performance.

Contracting Officer’s Representative (COR) – The COR provides detailed technical oversight of the

Contractor’s performance and reports findings to the Contracting Officer in a timely, complete and impartial fashion to support the Contracting Officer’s technical administration activities. While the COR may serve as a direct conduit to provide Government guidance and feedback to the Contractor on technical matters, he or she is not empowered to make any contractual commitments or to authorize any contractual changes

9 February 2018, Ver. 1.0 on the Government’s behalf. Any changes that the Contractor deems may affect contract, price, terms, or conditions shall be referred to the Contracting Officer for action.

6. METHODS OF QA SURVEILLANCE

The below listed methods of surveillance shall be used in the administration of this QASP. In addition to specific instructions that may be mentioned, the appropriate and standardized form that is to be used for documentation of QA surveillance is the Surveillance Activity Checklist (see ATTACHMENT B –

SURVEILLANCE ACTIVITY CHECKLIST).

Customer Feedback – Customer feedback may be obtained either from the results of formal customer satisfaction surveys or from random customer complaints. Customer complaints, to be considered valid, must set forth clearly and in writing the detailed nature of the complaint, must be signed and must be forwarded to the COR. The COR shall maintain a summary log of all formally received customer complaints as well as a copy of each complaint in a documentation file. The COR shall also keep the tabulated results of all customer satisfaction surveys on file and shall enter the summary results into the

Surveillance Activity Checklist and provide this to the Contracting Officer.

100% Inspection - This level of inspection shall be accomplished by monitoring and documentation.

Each month, the Contracting Officer, or if so designated, the appropriate COR, shall review the generated documentation and enter summary results into the Surveillance Activity Checklist.

Periodic Inspection - Periodic inspections shall be conducted if and when specified in individual task orders. For the potential tasks that have been identified so far and included in this QASP, the appropriate

COR typically performs the periodic inspection on a monthly basis.

Random Monitoring - Random monitoring shall be conducted if and when deemed necessary by the

Contracting Officer or COR. The random monitoring shall be performed by the Contracting Officer or by the appropriate designated COR.

7. PERFORMANCE REPORTING

Remedies for Non-Conformance

If inspections indicate unacceptable performance, the COR will notify the CO of the deficiencies for correction. If deficiencies are not corrected within the required time frame, the COR should notify the CO for action. If the contractor disagrees with the noted discrepancy and an agreement cannot be reached, the

CO shall be notified for a final decision

Customer Complaint Form

The COR must furnish instructions to the customer receiving the contractor’s service. The customer must retain supporting evidence of complaint or feedback. After the COR validates feedback or complaint demonstrating contractor noncompliance, the COR processes a Performance Assessment Report (PAR) or

Corrective Action Report (CAR) to the CO. ALL Customer Complaint forms WILL be validated by the

COR prior to notifying the contractor.

Corrective Action Request (CAR)

The COR will forward the CAR to the CO for action. A copy will be provided to the contractor’s representative by the CO. Contractors will be given two business days to respond and ten business days to complete or propose corrective action(s) with an actual or estimated completion date. Most CARs will be corrected within 30 calendar days depending on the complexity of the finding, the contractor may be allowed up to six months (maximum) correcting a CAR. The contractor will be asked the status of the CAR on a monthly basis. The COR will keep an electronic log of all CARs and will keep a hard copy of CARs in the COR file.

Contract Performance Assessment Reporting System (CPARS)

9 February 2018, Ver. 1.0

CPARS will be initiated annually, documenting contractor performance for this specific contract. More frequent updates may be made as required to document a significant improvement or degradation of the level of contract performance.

Disputes

Every attempt will be made to resolve all disputes arising under this contact/plan using the Alternate Dispute

Resolution (ADR) as outlined in FAR 33.214. If no resolution can be made under ADR, the CO will render a Contracting Officer’s final decision.

8. DOCUMENTATION

The COR will, in addition to providing documentation to the Contracting Officer, maintain a complete

Quality Assurance file. The file will contain copies of all reports, evaluations, recommendations, and any actions related to the Government’s performance of the quality assurance function, including the originals of the Surveillance Record (see ATTACHMENT A – SURVEILLANCE RECORD) and all Surveillance

Activity Checklists (see ATTACHMENT B – SURVEILLANCE ACTIVITY CHECKLIST). All such records will be retained for the life of this contract. The COR will forward these records to the Contracting

Officer at termination or completion of the contract.

12. ATTACHMENT C – ACCEPTABLE QUALITY LEVEL (AQL) RATINGS

FAR Subpart 42.1503, Table 42-1, Evaluation Rating Definitions

Exceptional Performance meets contractual requirements and exceeds many to the Government’s benefit.

The contractual performance of the element or sub-element being evaluated was accomplished with few minor problems for which corrective actions taken by the contractor were highly effective.

To justify an Exceptional rating, identify multiple significant events and state how they were of benefit to the Government. A singular benefit, however, could be of such magnitude that it alone constitutes an

Exceptional rating. Also, there should have been NO significant weaknesses identified.

Very Good Performance meets contractual requirements and exceeds some to the Government’s benefit.

The contractual performance of the element or sub-element being evaluated was accomplished with some minor problems for which corrective actions taken by the contractor were effective.

To justify a Very Good rating, identify a significant event and state how it was a benefit to the Government. There should have been no significant weaknesses identified.

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.

To justify a Satisfactory rating, there should have been only minor problems, or major problems the contractor recovered from without impact to the contract/order. There should have been NO significant weaknesses identified. A fundamental principle of assigning ratings is that contractors will not be evaluated with a rating lower than Satisfactory solely for not performing beyond the requirements of the contract/order.

Marginal Performance does not meet some contractual requirements. The contractual performance of the element or sub-element being evaluated 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.

To justify Marginal performance, identify a significant event in each category that the contractor had trouble overcoming and state how it impacted the Government. A

Marginal rating should be supported by referencing the management tool that notified the contractor of the contractual deficiency (e.g., management, quality, safety, or environmental deficiency report or letter).

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 ineffective.

To justify an Unsatisfactory rating, identify multiple significant events in each category that the contractor had trouble overcoming and state how it impacted the Government.

A singular problem, however, could be of such serious magnitude that it alone constitutes an unsatisfactory rating. An

Unsatisfactory rating should be supported by referencing the management tools used to notify the contractor of the contractual deficiencies (e.g., management, quality, safety, or environmental deficiency reports, or letters).

9 February 2018, Ver. 1.0

13. ATTACHMENT D – OVERALL RATINGS GUIDELINES

Provided for information only; Overall Rating will be calculated based on QASP input and determined based on guidance below.

Exceptional - to receive an "overall" rating of Exceptional, must receive Exceptional in both CPF and

Scheduled Maintenance and Very Good ratings in at least two of the remaining elements without receiving lower than a satisfactory rating in any element.

Very Good - to receive an "overall" rating of Very Good, must receive Very Good in both CPF and

Scheduled Maintenance and no lower than a Satisfactory rating in any other element.

Satisfactory - to receive an "overall" rating of Satisfactory must receive Satisfactory or higher in CPF and Scheduled Maintenance and no more than two marginal ratings and no unsatisfactory ratings.

Marginal - to receive an "overall" rating of Marginal, must receive Marginal or higher in CPF and

Scheduled Maintenance and no more than two Unsatisfactory ratings.

Unsatisfactory - to receive an "overall" rating of Unsatisfactory, does not meet any rating above.
