Description

Performance of Work Statement (PWS) SEPTIC PUMPING SERVICES Black Butte Dam and Lake 30 April 2026 SCOPE OF WORK General Information. Contractor shall provide all labor, materials, equipment, supervision, supplies, and transportation necessary to perform all septic pumping services at Black Butte Dam and Lake, Tehama County, CA. See Figures 1 through 8. 1.2. Work Locations. Services shall be performed at all recreation areas at Black Butte Dam and Lake. It is essential that the Contractor possess a vehicle in good working order to make trips between work locations and fulfill contract requirements. 2. CONTRACTOR’S QUALITY CONTROL PROGRAM Contractor shall establish a complete Quality Control Program (QCP) for the performance requirements of this contract and shall provide a written copy to the Government no later than 30 days after contract award. Contractor shall maintain the QCP throughout the contract performance period, and at any time, upon verbal or written request, shall provide a copy to the Government for review. The QCP shall include as a minimum the following: 2.1. A method of identifying deficiencies in the quality of services performed before the level of performance becomes unacceptable. Contractor shall use process control procedures and quality data analysis techniques. 2.2. Corrective action procedures for deficiencies and measures to prevent recurrence. The corrective actions will address the deficiency and an action to prevent future deficiencies. Additional inspection(s) are not considered a corrective action. The QCP shall be evaluated for adequacy and changed or updated by Contractor as a part of all corrective actions taken by Contractor. 3. GOVERNMENT QUALITY ASSURANCE SURVEILLANCE PLAN (QASP) This plan shall be used by the Government to assure that the work specified under this contract is being completed satisfactorily by Contractor, and that a viable QCP is in place. This plan is included for information purposes only and will not become part of any resulting contract. The QASP will consist of periodic inspections conducted by the Contracting Officer’s Representative (COR) or Quality Assurance Evaluator(QAE). Payment analysis will be conducted by using the random, planned, 100% sampling methods, or validated complaint. However, the Government has the right to change or modify inspection methods at its discretion. 4. PERFORMANCE EVALUATION MEETINGS Contractor shall meet with the KO’s Representative (COR) as often as determined necessary by the Government. A mutual effort will be made to resolve all problems identified. 5. PERFORMANCE CRITERIA Acceptable and unacceptable contract performance will be determined by the COR in accordance with the Performance Work Requirements Summary. When Contractor’s performance is considered unsatisfactory, a report shall be made to the COR to determine the deduction in price to be taken. Contractor shall respond to any complaints and/or ratings of poor performance within 5 calendar days after receipt of the report. The COR will require Contractor to explain, in writing, the cause of the discrepancy, the corrective action to obtain an acceptable level(s), and the corrective action to preclude a recurring incidence of the problem. Contractor will not be paid for that portion of performance determined to be unsatisfactory by the COR. 6. REMEDIAL ACTIONS 6.1. The COR will verbally advise or give a written inspection report to Contractor of discrepancies the first time they occur and ask Contractor to correct the problem. A notation will be made on the COR checklist of the date and time the deficiency was discovered and the date and time Contractor was notified. 6.2. If the Government created any of the discrepancies, these will not be counted against Contractor’s performance. When the Government has caused Contractor to perform in an unsatisfactory manner, the COR will forward a written notice to the responsible organizational element requesting corrective action be taken. 6.3. The Contractor’s failure to perform an action as required by the contract can be considered a default in performance. In this event, the KO (KO) will issue a Contract Deficiency Report (CDR) to the Contractor. The seriousness of the failures should govern whether to issue a CDR at the end of the period, or as soon as the limits of satisfactory performance are exceeded. 6.4. When a CDR notice is issued for a service, the KO must deduct from the periodic payment, a percentage of that payment as indicated in the Performance of Work Requirements. 6.5. If the Contractor does not achieve satisfactory performance by the end of the next period or agreed suspense date, another CDR will be issued, and the appropriate amount deducted from the periodic payment in accordance with the disincentive rate listed in the Performance of Work Requirements. 6.6. A third CDR will be the cause for a Cure Notice. However, the KO may issue a Cure Notice or Show Cause letter at any time he/she deems appropriate. Depending on the overall performance of Contractor, an unsatisfactory reply to the Cure Notice should require a Show Cause letter to be issued, followed by consideration of termination of the contract. 7. PAYMENT AND INVOICES 7.1. The Contractor shall be paid at the completion of services for work accomplished. Failure to complete any of the required items defined in the contract specifications for a particular service shall be cause for that service to be considered incomplete in its entirety. Incomplete services are not billable by the Contractor. As per the Performance Work Statement, if work accomplished is unsatisfactory and does not meet the contract specifications, the Contractor shall be subject to the parameters set forth in the Performance Work Statement and may be held liable for any costs to the Government to correct the problem.
