    The Quality Assurance Surveillance Plan (QASP) outlines the government's framework for ensuring contractor compliance with performance metrics in a Performance Based Service Contract (PBSC). It aims to guarantee that contractors deliver services as specified in the Performance Work Statement (PWS), ensuring quality and accountability while avoiding overpayment for services not rendered satisfactorily. Key areas of focus include critical performance processes, standards for schedule and service delivery, contractor past performance, and various surveillance methods, such as random inspections and self-reporting.
