C.1.10.1 Contractor shall develop a Quality Control Plan designed to demonstrate how the Contractor will meet the needs of the Project. The Quality Control Plan shall document how the

PWS in an acceptable manner. The Government develops the QAP, and the Project Office administers the plan through Quality Assurance Evaluators (QAEs).

C.1.11.2 GOVERNMENT SURVEILLANCE PLAN. The Government will monitor the Contractor’s performance under this contract using quality assurance procedures developed by the Government.

Typical procedures might include random sampling, checklists and customer complaints. This should not be considered an exhaustive list. A primary objective of Government Quality Assurance will be to determine the effectiveness of the Contractor’s quality control system.

C.1.11.3 INSPECTIONS. According to the Inspection of Services clause (52.246-4 Inspection of

Services-Fixed Price), the Government reserves the right to inspect and test all services called for by the contract, to the extent practicable at all times and places during the term of the contract. The Government will perform inspections and tests in a manner that will not unduly delay the work.

C.1.11.4 UNSATISFACTORY PERFORMANCE. If any of the services do not conform to contract requirements, the Government may request the Contractor to perform the services again, where appropriate, in conformity with contract requirements, at no increase in contract amount. When the defects in services cannot be corrected by re-performance, the

Government may (1) require the contractor to take necessary action to ensure that future performance conforms to contract requirements, and (2) reduce the contract price to reflect the reduced value of the services performed. NOTE: 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 by contract, or otherwise: (1) 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) terminate the contract in whole or in part. The Government reserves the right to cause the specified work to be performed by a third party or Government personnel and the cost incurred thereby will be levied against the

Contractor. Any time Government personnel are used because of Contractor's nonperformance, the cost levied against the Contractor will include all direct costs associated with the performance of the specified work the direct cost to the Government for substitution of the Government personnel removed from their normal duties is computed on an hourly basis at the applicable wage rate. Government personnel will be used only when time is of the essence and the interests of the Government would not be served by securing a third party to perform the specified work.

C.1.12 OTHER CONTRACTS. The Contractor shall not commit or permit any act which may interfere with the performance of work by another Contractor or Government employee(s).

C.1.13 VOLUNTEERS. Volunteers may be utilized in the parks. Volunteers receive and follow instructions from a Government representative, not the Contractor.
