6.3 Surveillance. Inspections by the COR will serve as the surveillance methods. If the COR discovers deficiencies and/or receives complaints, the COR will alert them to the contractor 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 7 days prior to the Post-Award Conference. Once accepted, the QCP becomes a part of the Quality Assurance 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.

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 COR will notify 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 ensure 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.
