About this file

This document is a template for a Corrective Action Report (CAR) used by contractors responding to quality issues identified by the Defense Contract Management Agency (DCMA). The CAR template outlines an eight section format for contractors to document problem descriptions, containment actions, root cause analyses, corrective action plans, validation of corrective actions, prevention of future errors, and standardization of processes. Contractors must submit a completed CAR to DCMA within 15 working days of issue identification, including signatures from the problem solving team and DCMA acceptance. The template provides guidance and requests information to ensure contractors adequately address quality issues and implement lasting corrective measures verified by DCMA to prevent reoccurrence.

The related federal contract opportunity is a solicitation from the U.S. Army Contracting Command at Aberdeen Proving Ground to provide Small Arms Protective Inserts (SAPIs) in support of Foreign Military Sales cases over five years. The IDIQ contract may make up to three awards, with one set-aside for small businesses. SAPIs must comply with domestic sourcing requirements and be ballistically tested to specified standards. Offerors must submit product demonstration models for evaluation by specified response dates. The solicitation and amendments are available electronically and offerors should monitor for updates.
