In this case, he must begin performance of work within two hours of notification. The Task Order will be issued on the next business day after issuance of the verbal order.

Award of a contract does not guarantee that the Government will order all of the types of services listed under the contract from the Contractor. The Government reserves the right at any time during the duration of this contract to perform any portion of the services listed, to have the services performed in any other way it deems necessary, to increase or decrease service frequencies and/or quantities in any or all areas or portions of areas, or to close any area or portion of an area and delete any subsequent services in the closed area. In the event that services are reduced under this contract, the Government will issue a modification of the Task Order to stop work or to change the Work Schedule Calendars. The contractor’s invoice shall be proportionally reduced for services not performed. An example showing the method used to calculate the deduction for reduced services is included in Exhibit O.

b. Staffing Schedule. The Contractor shall provide an adequate number of fully qualified personnel and supplies to perform the work specified herein in accordance with an approved work schedule.

a. An inspection system including all the services stated in the contract specifications. It shall specify areas to be inspected on either a scheduled or unscheduled basis or the individuals who shall do the inspection

b. A method of identifying and correcting deficiencies in the quality of services performed before the level of performance is unacceptable.

c. A file of all inspections conducted by the Contractor and the corrective actions taken. These files shall be made available for inspection upon request by the COR.

d. A method of ensuring that employees have full knowledge of work assignments and that appropriate technical expertise is utilized with each work assignment.

A sample program is described in Exhibit E. The Contractor may use any or all portions of this plan to prepare a plan of his own. A signed plan, including Contractor specific information, shall be provided to the Contracting Officer and the COR prior to the Pre-Work Conference. If changes to this program occur, updated copies shall be provided to the Contracting Officer and COR.

Failure to provide appropriate Quality Control may result in issuance of a CDR, and/or termination of the contract.

C-1.14. QUALITY ASSURANCE. The Government will monitor the Contractor's performance in each functional area under this contract and reserves the right to use whatever additional surveillance procedures are deemed appropriate. The Government will monitor the contract to insure compliance using a Quality Assurance Surveillance Plan (QASP), but reserves the right to alter the plan at its own discretion. The QASP is included as Exhibit F for information purposes only and will not be made part of any resulting contract. As appropriate, calculation of deductions for certain deficiencies will be made using the contract clause entitled "Inspection of Services" located in Section E.

The Government will keep a record of all complaints received by the public concerning Contractor performance. Upon receipt of a written complaint by the public, the Government will attempt to verify the complaint and furnish the

Contractor a copy of the findings. Should the Government verification reveal a nonperformance by the Contractor, a CDR may be issued.

No Inspector is authorized to change any provision of the specifications without written authorization of the Contracting Officer nor shall the presence or absence of an inspector relieve the Contractor from any requirements of the Contract.

C-1.15. DEFICIENCIES.

a. General. If the Contractor fails to perform, or if performance in any area is judged unsatisfactory, the Government will take corrective action.
