Specifically, the Contractor’s primary responsibilities include overall testing and evaluation of all medical X-Ray equipment, annual quality assurance review and certification of all X-Ray procedures, and ensuring compliance with X-Ray testing standards and regulations by VHA federal organizations. This QASP has been developed to evaluate contractor actions while implementing the Performance-based SOW. It is designed to provide an effective surveillance method of monitoring contractor performance for each item listed under Description of Services in the SOW. The QASP provides a systematic method to evaluate the services and products the contractor is required to furnish. This QASP is based on the premise that the contractor, and not the government, is responsible for management and quality control actions to meet the terms of the contract. The role of the government quality assurance personnel is to ensure contract standards are achieved.
