6.0 PERFORMANCE REQUIREMENTS SUMMARY.
6.1 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 per the PRS surveillance schedule.
6.2 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).

6.3 Surveillance. 100% inspections by the COR will serve as the surveillance methods. If the COR discovers deficiencies and/or receives complaints, the COR will pass them on to the Contractor's Quality Control Inspector (QCI) for correction.
6.4 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 their Quality Control Plan (QCP) for Government approval within 14 days after contract award in compliance with the PWS. 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 KO’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 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.
6.5 Unacceptable Performance. When performance is determined unacceptable, as defined in the
Performance Requirements Summary, the Quality Assurance Evaluator (QAE) will inform the Contractor’s on-site representative that performance is unacceptable and provide written documentation by use of the Form DD 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
KO.
The GQAE will notify the COR and the KO 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. 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:
i. 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;
ii. Issue Cure Notice;
iii. Terminate the contract for Government convenience; and/or
iv. Terminate the contract for Cause.
6.6 Correction of Non-Performance of Work. 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.
