## E.2 Quality Assurance Plan (QAP)

This plan is designed to provide an effective surveillance method to
promote effective contractor performance. The QAP provides a method for
the Contracting Officer\'s Representative (COR) to monitor contractor
performance, advise the contractor of unsatisfactory performance, and
notify the Contracting Officer of continued unsatisfactory performance.
The contractor, not the Government, is responsible for management and
quality control to meet the terms of the contract. The role of the
Government is to conduct quality assurance to ensure that contract
standards are achieved.

    valid complaints.

employee leaves Contractor service, or at the request of the Government.

## H.2 STANDARDS OF CONDUCT

(a) **General:** The Contractor shall maintain satisfactory standards of
    employee competency, conduct, cleanliness, appearance and integrity
    and shall be responsible for taking such disciplinary action with
    respect to employees as required. Each Contractor employee is
    expected to adhere to standards of conduct that reflect credit on
    themselves, their employer, and the United States Government. The
    Government reserves the right to direct the Contractor to remove an
    employee from the worksite for failure to comply with the standards
    of conduct***.*** The Contractor shall immediately replace such an
    employee to maintain continuity of services at no additional cost to
    the Government.

(b) **Uniforms**: The Contractor\'s employees shall wear clean, neat and
    identifiable uniforms, although not necessarily identical uniforms.
    All employees shall wear accreditation at all times.

    Contractor shall not duplicate keys without the COR\'s approval.

    duplicated a key without permission of the COR, the Contractor shall
    remove the individual(s) responsible from this contract. If the

    arise. Where local law requires bonuses, specific minimum wage
    levels, and premium pay for holidays, payments for social security,
    pensions, sick or health benefits, severance payments, childcare or
    any other benefit, the Contractor is responsible for payments of
    these costs and must include them in the fixed prices in this
    contract.

    Contractor assumes absolute responsibility and liability for any and

    compliance with applicable host country laws. The Contractor shall
    provide evidence of possession or status of application for such
    permits, licenses, and appointments to the Contracting Officer with
    its proposal. Application, justification, fees, and certifications
    for any licenses required by the host government are entirely the
    responsibility of the Contractor.

certificate of insurance as evidence of the insurance required. In
addition, the Contractor shall furnish evidence of a commitment by the
insurance carrier to notify the Contracting Officer in writing of any

appropriate funds, or similar reasons, deductions will be computed as
follows:

> \(1\) The deduction rate in dollars per day will be equal to the per
> month contract price divided by 21 days per month.
>
> \(2\) The deduction rate in dollars per day will be multiplied by the
> number of days services are not required or provided.
>
> If services are provided for portions of days, appropriate adjustment
> will be made by the contracting officer to ensure that the contractor
> is compensated for services provided.

contract, it will be without loss to the contractor. The cost of
salaries and wages to the contractor for the period of any such excused
absence shall be a reimbursable item of direct cost hereunder for
employees whose regular time is normally charged, and a reimbursable
item of indirect cost for employees whose time is normally charged
indirectly in accordance with the contractor's accounting policy.

(End of clause)

## I.8 652.225-71 Section 8(A) Of The Export Administration Act Of 1979, As Amended (Aug 1999)

(a) Section 8(a) of the U.S. Export Administration Act of 1979, as
    amended (50 U.S.C. 2407(a)), prohibits compliance by U.S. persons
    with any boycott fostered by a foreign country against a country
    which is friendly to the United States and which is not itself the
    object of any form of boycott pursuant to United States law or
    regulation. The Boycott of Israel by Arab League countries is such a
    boycott, and therefore, the following actions, if taken with intent
    to comply with, further, or support the Arab League Boycott of
    Israel, are prohibited activities under the Export Administration
    Act:

> \(1\) Refusing, or requiring any U.S. person to refuse to do business
> with or in Israel, with any Israeli business concern, or with any
> national or resident of Israel, or with any other person, pursuant to
> an agreement of, or a request from or on behalf of a boycotting
> country;
>
> \(2\) Refusing, or requiring any U.S. person to refuse to employ or
> otherwise discriminating against any person on the basis of race,
> religion, sex, or national origin of that person or of any owner,
> officer, director, or employee of such person;
>
> \(3\) Furnishing information with respect to the race, religion, or
> national origin of any U.S. person or of any owner, officer, director,
> or employee of such U.S. person;
>
> \(4\) Furnishing information about whether any person has, has had, or
> proposes to have any business relationship (including a relationship
> by way of sale, purchase, legal or commercial representation, shipping
> or other transport, insurance, investment, or supply) with or in the
> State of Israel, with any business concern organized under the laws of
> the State of Israel, with any Israeli national or resident, or with
> any person which is known or believed to be restricted from having any
> business relationship with or in Israel;
>
> \(5\) Furnishing information about whether any person is a member of,
> has made contributions to, or is otherwise associated with or involved
> in the activities of any charitable or fraternal organization which
> supports the State of Israel; and,
>
> \(6\) Paying, honoring, confirming, or otherwise implementing a letter
> of credit which contains any condition or requirement against doing
> business with the State of Israel.

(b) Under Section 8(a), the following types of activities are not
    forbidden "compliance with the boycott,\'\' and are therefore
    exempted from Section 8(a)\'s prohibitions listed in paragraphs
    (a)(1)-(6) above:

> \(1\) Complying or agreeing to comply with requirements:
>
> \(i\) Prohibiting the import of goods or services from Israel or goods
> produced or services provided by any business concern organized under
> the laws of Israel or by nationals or residents of Israel; or,
>
> \(ii\) Prohibiting the shipment of goods to Israel on a carrier of
> Israel, or by a route other than that prescribed by the boycotting
> country or the recipient of the shipment;
>
> \(2\) Complying or agreeing to comply with import and shipping
> document requirements with respect to the country of origin, the name
> of the carrier and route of shipment, the name of the supplier of the
> shipment or the name of the provider of other services, except that no
> information knowingly furnished or conveyed in response to such
> requirements may be stated in negative, blacklisting, or similar
> exclusionary terms, other than with respect to carriers or route of
> shipments as may be permitted by such regulations in order to comply
> with precautionary requirements protecting against war risks and
> confiscation;
>
> \(3\) Complying or agreeing to comply in the normal course of business
> with the unilateral and specific selection by a boycotting country, or
> national or resident thereof, of carriers, insurance, suppliers of
> services to be performed within the boycotting country or specific
> goods which, in the normal course of business, are identifiable by
> source when imported into the boycotting country;
>
> \(4\) Complying or agreeing to comply with the export requirements of
> the boycotting country relating to shipments or transshipments of
> exports to Israel, to any business concern of or organized under the
> laws of Israel, or to any national or resident of Israel;
>
> \(5\) Compliance by an individual or agreement by an individual to
> comply with the immigration or passport requirements of any country
> with respect to such individual or any member of such individual\'s
> family or with requests for information regarding requirements of
> employment of such individual within the boycotting country; and,
>
> \(6\) Compliance by a U.S. person resident in a foreign country or
> agreement by such person to comply with the laws of that country with
> respect to his or her activities exclusively therein, and such
> regulations may contain exceptions for such resident complying with
> the laws or regulations of that foreign country governing imports into
> such country of trademarked, trade named, or similarly specifically
> identifiable products, or components of products for his or her own
> use, including the performance of contractual services within that
> country, as may be defined by such regulations.

## I.9 652.229-71 Personal Property Disposition At Posts Abroad (Aug 1999)

Regulations at 22 CFR Part 136 require that U.S. Government employees
and their families do not profit personally from sales or other
transactions with persons who are not themselves entitled to exemption
from import restrictions, duties, or taxes. Should the Contractor
experience importation or tax privileges in a foreign country because of
its contractual relationship to the United States Government, the
Contractor shall observe the requirements of 22 CFR Part 136 and all
policies, rules, and procedures issued by the chief of mission in that
foreign country.

maximum number of cleaners allowed at these areas is 2 (two).

> 2\. Escort can only be provided between 0600 and 0800 am. Cleaning of
> the offices located at these floors has to be scheduled between these
> hours.

> 3\. The cleaning of the other (non-CAA) areas can be scheduled outside
> the hours listed above.
>
> 4\. The schedule for all 'non-daily cleaning services' (carpets,
> windows, etc.) has to be agreed and approved by both the COR and the
> Security office well in advance. All biographic information on the
> cleaning crew has to be forwarded at least 3 weeks before the
> tentative cleaning date. The cleaning can only be performed under
