| Abstract | A contractor quality control plan (CQCP) is the documentation of the contractor’s process for delivering the level of construction quality required by the contract. This document is intended to provide guidance to Federal Lands contractors, subcontractors and suppliers as to what is expected from CQCPs, and what the criteria for accepting and using the requirements for these plans will be. The CQCP is a framework for the contractor’s process for delivering quality construction. The plans and specifications define the expected results or outcome. The CQCP outlines how those results will be achieved. While it is not possible to determine from the CQCP whether the level of construction quality will be acceptable, it is possible to verify that the contractor, as an organization, has addressed the basic elements of its quality process. These guidelines address, not only what should be in the CQCP in order for it to be acceptable to the Government, but also what elements the Government’s QA process needs to have in order to assure quality without usurping the contractor’s responsibilities. |
