PERFORMANCE REQUIREMENTS SUMMARY
8. Quality Control / Quality Assurance
8.1. The Government maintains the right to reject any work that is found to be in error, incomplete, or in any way not conforming to the requirements outlined in the PWS. The Government will inspect and evaluate the Contractor’s performance to ensure services are received in accordance with the requirements set forth in this contract. The COR will inspect by validating actual work performance, physically inspecting the task or its results to determine whether the performance meets the standards outlined in the PWS.
8.2. Contractor’s Quality Control Plan (QCP): QCP is to be delivered within thirty (30) days after contract award, and must implement procedures to identify, prevent, and ensure non-recurrence of defective services. At a minimum, the QCP shall identify: (1) an inspection system covering all work tasks stated in the contract to include description of accountability procedures for equipment; (2) corrective action procedures for deficiencies and measures to prevent recurrence.
The corrective actions will address the deficiency and actions taken to prevent future deficiencies.
Additional inspection(s) are not considered a corrective action. After acceptance of the quality control plan, the Contractor shall receive the KO’s acceptance in writing of any proposed changes. When revisions are required, a comprehensive written QCP shall be submitted to the KO and COR within five (5) working days for review.

Performance Requirements Summary (PRS): The contract service requirements are summarized in Performance Objectives, outlined in the Quality Assurance Surveillance Plan (QASP) that relate directly to mission essential items.
