Attachment 4: Contract Surveillance Plan

Contract Surveillance Plan for
Airborne Systems Integration
Technical/Project Management Support

1.Purpose

This Contract Surveillance Plan (CSP) is a Government developed and applied document used to ensure systematic Quality Assurance (QA) methods are used in the administration and surveillance of tasking under the Task Order (TO). The intent is to ensure the Contractor performs In Accordance With (IAW) the Statement of Work (SOW) and the Government receives the quality of services called for in the SeaPort-Next Generation (NxG) Multiple Award Contract (MAC) TO.

The Naval Air Warfare Center Aircraft Division (NAWCAD) Webster Outlying Field (WOLF) Airborne Systems Integration (ASI) Division, operating under the organic Lead Systems Integrator® model, has a requirement for technical project management, data management, and acquisition support for ASI Technical/Project Management Support (TPMS).

This TO will have Cost-Plus-Fixed-Fee (CPFF) term Contract Line Item Numbers (CLINs) for labor and corresponding cost reimbursable CLINs for Other Direct Costs (ODCs). The TO will have a base year plus four option years. A properly executed CSP will assist the Government in achieving the objectives of this procurement. 2.Authority

Authority for issuance of this CSP is provided under TO Section E – Inspection and Acceptance, which provides for inspections and acceptance of the services, products, and documentation called for in the TO that will be executed by the Contracting Officer (KO) or a duly authorized representative. 3.Scope

To fully understand the roles and responsibilities of the parties, it is important to first define the distinction in terminology between Quality Control Plan (QCP) and the CSP. The Contractor, and not the Government, is responsible for the QCP, which defines the management and quality control actions necessary to meet the quality standards set forth in the TO.

The CSP provides Government surveillance oversight of the Contractor’s efforts to assure they are timely, effective, and delivering the results specified in the TO. 4.Government Resources
The following definitions for Government resources are applicable to this plan: KO: A person duly appointed with the authority to enter into a contract (Procuring Contracting Officer (PCO)), or a person with the authority to administer contracts (Administrative Contracting Officer (ACO)) and make related determinations and findings on behalf of the Government. The ACO will be designated in the resulting TO. KOs are designated via a written warrant that sets forth limitations of authority.
