PERFORMANCE BASED ACQUISITION MATRIX INTRODUCTION This Performance?Based Quality Assurance Surveillance Plan (QASP) has been developed pursuant to the requirements of the Performance?Based Statements of Work. This plan sets forth procedures and guidelines that the Indian Health Service will use in evaluating the technical performance of the Contractor. A copy of this plan will be furnished to the Contractor so that the Contractor will be aware of the methods that the Government will employ in evaluating the performance on this contract and address any concerns that the Contractor may have prior to initiating work. PURPOSE OF THE QASP The QASP is intended to accomplish the following: �� Define the roles and responsibilities of participating Government officials; �� Define the types of work to be performed with required end results; �� Describe the evaluation methods that will be employed by the Government in assessing the Contractor's performance; �� The Quality Assurance Monitoring form (see attached) that will be used by the government in documenting and evaluating the Contractor's performance; and �� Describe the process of performance documentation. ROLES AND RESPONSIBILTIES OF PARTICIPATING GOVERNMENT OFFICIALS The Project Officer shall be responsible for monitoring, assessing, evaluating, and reporting on the Contractor�s technical performance. The Project Officer shall have the primary responsibility for completing Quality Assurance Monitoring form use to document the inspection and evaluation of the Contractor's work performance. It is extremely important for the Project Officer to establish and maintain a team?oriented line of communication with the Contractor. METHODOLOGIES TO BE USED TO MONITOR THE CONTRACTOR'S PERFORMANCE Even though the Government through the Project Officer will be monitoring the Contractor's performance on a continuing basis, the volume of tasks performed by the Contractor makes technical inspections of every task and steps impractical. Accordingly, the Indian Health Service will use a quality assurance review process to monitor the Contractor's performance under this contract. The Contractor's performance shall be evaluated by the Project Officer according to three categories: ""superior"", ""acceptable� and unacceptable� as defined below: Superior:� a level of performance which exceeds the minimum standards of performance; or Acceptable:� an acceptable level of performance which meets the minimum standards of performance; or Unacceptable:� a level of performance that is fails to meet the minimum standards of performance. The Project Officer will forward copies of all completed QA monitoring forms to the Contracting Officer and Contractor by close of business on the days the forms were prepared. The Contractor is required to respond in writing to any negative QA monitoring forms) within 5 working days after receipt of the form(s). ANALYSIS OF SURVEILLANCE RESULTS The Contracting Officer will receive QA monitoring form prepared by the Project Officer. When appropriate, the Contracting Officer may investigate the event further to determine if all the facts and circumstances surrounding the event were considered in the Project Officer�s statements outlined on the form. The Contracting Officer shall immediately discuss every event receiving a substandard rating with the Contractor to assure that corrective action is promptly initiated. The services or activities that will be used to evaluate Contractor performance are listed below. Performance deductions for these products or activities will be taken only once, when the task is completed.
