1.6 General Information

1.6.1 Quality Control: Quality Control is the responsibility of the contractor. The contractor is responsible for the delivery of quality services/supplies to the Government (see FAR 52.246-1, Contractor Inspection Requirements).

The Contractor shall develop, implement and maintain an effective Quality Control System, which includes a written Quality Control Plan (QCP). The QCP shall implement standardized procedure/methodology for monitoring and documenting contract performance to ensure all contract requirements are met. The Contractors’ QCP must contain a systematic approach to monitor operations to ensure acceptable services/products are provided to the Government. The QCP as a minimum shall address continuous process improvement; procedures for scheduling, conducting and documentation of inspection; discrepancy identification and correction; corrective action procedures to include procedures for addressing Government discovered non-conformances; procedures for root cause analysis to identify the root cause and root cause corrective action to prevent re-occurrence of discrepancies; procedures for trend analysis; procedures for collecting and addressing customer feedback/complaints. The contractor shall upon request provide to the Government their quality control documentation. The QCP shall be delivered to the Contracting Office with the Contractor’s proposal. After acceptance of the quality control plan the Contractor shall receive the Contracting Officer’s acceptance in writing of any proposed change to the QCP. If changes to the QCP is made after contract award the Contractor shall submit a copy of the new QCP to the Contracting Officer and Contracting Officer Representative within 5 business days of the effective change.

1.6.1.1 Quality Control Plan: The QCP is developed by the Contractor to validate it performs and delivers high-quality service and products (see Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) Part 46.105 and 52.246-1, Contractor Inspection Requirements). The Contractor shall submit their QCP to the COR no later than 30 calendar days after award for COR review and approval. Any changes to the QCP shall be approved by the COR prior to implementation. Use of the previous QCP will be available but it is the Contractor’s responsibility to update based on the required information of the QCP. The QCP shall include, but not be limited to the following:

a. The name(s) of the individual(s) who will perform the inspection.

b. An inspection system covering the services stated in the contract comprised of a checklist used in inspecting contract performance during regularly scheduled or unscheduled inspections.

c. The checklist shall include every area of the operation serviced by the contractor as well as every task required to be performed.

d. A system for identifying and correcting deficiencies in the quality of services before the level of performance becomes unacceptable.

e. A file of all inspections conducted by the contractor and the corrective actions taken. The documentation shall be maintained locally and made available upon request.

f. A service guarantee detailing contractor’s commitment to make all reasonable effort to remedy identified problems to be provided with quality control plan. Any and all remedies shall be performed at no additional cost to the government.

g. How the Contractor shall make available to the Government documentation and records, including internal audit reports, Corrective Action Reports, and Preventive Action Reports that impact the quality of products or services offered.

h. Method used to ensure service deficiencies are not repetitive in nature (e.g., root cause identified and corrected, and problem does not reoccur).

i. Customer complaint program: system for identification and correction of validated complaints and to provide feedback to the COR and customer of corrective actions taken.

1.6.2 Quality Assurance: The government shall evaluate the contractor’s performance under this contract in accordance with the Quality Assurance Surveillance Plan (QASP). This plan is a Government only document primarily focused on what the Government must do to assure that the contractor has performed in accordance with the requirements of the contract. The Government reserves the right to inspect or test any supplies or services that have been tendered for acceptance. Non-conforming services shall be re-performed at no increase in contract price.

If non-conforming services are recurring, cannot be re-performed, or the services fail to achieve the Performance Requirements Summary (PRS) acceptable quality level (AQL) (see A.1.), the Government may reject the nonconforming service(s) and document the contractor’s performance record accordingly. The Government may also issue a Corrective Action Request (CAR) in which the contractor will be required to respond with the development of a Corrective Action Plan (CAP) which identifies the root cause, corrective action (CA) for the root cause, CA for the specific nonconformance, and the date the CAs will be complete. The Government may also reduce the payment to the contractor IAW the PRS or reduce payment to reflect the value of the services performed or may perform the services and charge the Contractor for any related cost incurred or may terminate this contract for default.

1.6.2.1 Non-conforming Services: CARs (formerly Nonconformance Reports) are used for managing contractual nonconformances on ACC administered contracts. Nonconformance occurs when a contractor fails to meet contract or task order terms, conditions and/or specifications. The COR will notify the contractor, in person, each time an unacceptable observation has been recorded and ask the contractor to correct the problem or re-accomplish the service. Resolution of nonconformance discovered at the subcontractor level shall be addressed with the prime contractor. CARs are issued, overseen and closed IAW ACC Acquisition Instruction (AI) and FAR subpart 46.407 nonconforming supplies or services.

1.6.2.1.1 Level I: A Level I CAR describes a deficiency on a product or service and is not a systemic breakdown of a process or system. It includes those nonconformances that are minor in nature and can be promptly corrected by the contractor, present no need for root cause analysis, no determination if other contract requirements are affected, present no need for further preventive action, and do not materially reduce the usability of the supplies, services, construction, or deliverables. While the Government must document the nonconformance and the contractor must correct the nonconformance, further actions and Government follow-up are not required, and no written response from the contractor is needed. Level I CARs are considered closed immediately upon issuance.

1.6.2.1.2 Level II: A Level II CAR describes deficiencies in a contractor’s processes or systems but are not significant deficiencies. Level II CARs shall require the contractor to correct the nonconformance, perform root cause, and develop and provide a Corrective Action Plan (CAP) acceptable to the government. Some examples of systems affected may be quality inspection/management systems, and CBS identified in DFARS 242.70, or issues such as:

• Multiple deficiencies on products or services indicating a systemic issue throughout the process, or,

• An escalation of repetitive Level I CARs for the same or similar nonconformance demonstrating the contractor is failing to institute effective corrective action and/or failing to implement effective quality and/or internal control(s).

1.6.2.1.3 Level III: A Level III CAR describes deficiencies in a contractor’s system that is affecting a contract’s or program’s ability to meet cost, schedule or performance requirements, or are:

• A significant deficiency pursuant to DFARS 252.242-7005(b), “Contractor Business Systems” (CBS), or,

• A failure to respond to Level II CARs, or to remedy a recurring nonconformance.

• The contractor shall be required to provide a CAP that is acceptable to the government.

NOTE: If not resolved satisfactorily, a Level III CAR may result in the initiation of available contractual remedies, such as reductions of payments, cost disallowances, revocation of government assumption of risk of loss, or business management system disapprovals, etc.

1.6.2.1.4 Level IV: A Level IV CAR documents a critical nonconformance of such serious nature that is issued to the contractor’s business segment or corporate management for their attention to both the nonconforming condition and the company’s corrective action, or when a Level III CAR has been ineffective. A Level IV CAR will result in a mandatory review of available contractual remedies, such as cost disallowance, reduction or suspension of payments, revocation of government assumption of risk of loss, CBS disapproval, or suspension of all product and service acceptance activities. Contractual remedies will be implemented IAW applicable FAR/DFARS clauses and/or ACC Acquisition Instructions if applicable. Action to suspend product or service acceptance will be accomplished via a Level IV CAR. The contractor shall be required to provide a CAP that is acceptable to the government.

Overarching CAR Process Flow. The following outlines the normal process flow for the corrective action process.

Follow the steps provided within the Product Data Reporting and Evaluation Program (PDREP) CAR Module User Guide.
