4.7 Permits and Responsibilities. The Contractor shall, without additional expense to the Government, be responsible for obtaining all necessary licenses and permits, and for complying with any applicable Federal, State, County, and Municipal laws, codes, and regulations, in connection with the services of the work within this requirement.

5.0 PERFORMANCE REQUIREMENTS SUMMARY TABLE

It is intended to ensure that the Government receives the services for which it contracted. The Government will only pay for services received. The Performance Requirements Summary (PRS) determines if the Contractor meets the performance standards of the contract, as well as provides guidelines for how and when surveillance will be performed. It ensures timeliness, effectiveness, and that the contractor is delivering the results specified in the contract. Government contract quality assurance will be performed at such times and/or places as may be necessary to determine the services conform to contract requirements.

5.1 If the Contractor fails to perform at any time and the work is deemed critical by the COR, Government forces may be assigned to perform the work. If this occurs, the Contractor shall be required to reimburse the Government for the full costs of the work performed including labor, materials, transportation, and supervision.

5.2 Performance Requirements Summary. These are the criteria against which the performance will be evaluated. Work shall be considered not to have been performed when any one of the following conditions exists in accordance to the Quality Assurance Surveillance Plan (QASP).

5.3 Surveillance. Periodic surveillance by the QAE or COR, in addition to complaints from project personnel will serve as the surveillance method. If the QAE or COR discovers deficiencies and/or receives complaints, the QAE or COR will pass them on to the contractor's Quality Control Inspector (QCI) for correction.

5.4 Quality Control. The contractor, not the Government is responsible for quality control actions necessary to meet the quality standards set forth by the contract. The Contractor shall develop and submit his Quality Control Plan (QCP) for Government approval after award in compliance with the statement of work. Once accepted, the QCP becomes a part of the Quality Control Surveillance Plan (QASP). The QASP is made part of the solicitation but not a part of the resultant contract. The QASP is not a contractual instrument and may be changed at the Contracting Officer’s discretion. The Contractor then uses the QASP to guide and document the implementation of the required management and quality control actions to achieve the specified results. The Government reserves the right under the Contract Terms and Conditions--Commercial Items (FAR Clause 52.212-4) to inspect and test the services called for by the contract, to the extent practicable at all times and places during the term of the contract. Non-conforming services shall be rejected.

5.5 Unacceptable Performance. When performance is determined unacceptable, as defined in the Performance Requirements Summary, the Government Quality Assurance Evaluator (GQAE) will inform the contractor’s on-site representative that performance is unacceptable and provide written documentation by use of the form DD Form 2772, Contract Discrepancy Report. By initialing and dating the form, the contractor is only acknowledging notification of unacceptable performance. Disputes in surveillance should be referred to the Contracting Officer.

5.6 The GQAE will notify the COR and the Contracting Officer of less than acceptable performance. If any of the services do not conform to contract requirements, the Government may require the Contractor to perform the services again in conformity with contract requirements, at no increase in contract amount. Due to the hazardous nature of this requirement, in order for re-performance to be an acceptable resolution to the less than acceptable performance, then the Contractor has to be able to perform services again within an hour or less.

When the defect(s) in services cannot be corrected by re-performance, the Government may:

a. Require the Contractor to take necessary action to ensure future performance conforms to contract requirements.

b. Reduce the contract price to reflect the reduced value of the services performed.

c. If the Contractor fails to promptly re-perform the services, or to take the necessary action to ensure future performance in conformity with contract requirements, the Government may:

1) By contract or otherwise, perform the services and charge to the Contractor any cost incurred by the Government that is directly related to the performance of such service or

2) Issue Cure Notice

3) Terminate the contract for Cause.

5.7 Correction of Non-Performance of Work. The Contractor shall employ an adequate quantity of personnel to insure that any area found to be not in compliance and therefore not acceptable, shall be made acceptable by the performance or re-performance of the work, where such re-performance is possible, during the first business day after noncompliance has been observed by or reported to and verified by the COR.

5.8 Standard. Recurring defects are not permitted for any of the above service items. For example, if the COR discovers trash left in an area covered under the contract, the contractor is required to correct the defect through re-performance. No defect is recorded against the contractor's performance. However, if this same situation occurs again during the contract period, a defect will be recorded and reported to the Contracting Officer for appropriate action in accordance with FAR 52.212.4, Contract Terms and Conditions-Commercial Items (May 1997).
