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

1.18.2.1.4. 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
