The contractor is responsible for the delivery of quality services and supplies to the Government. Perfect performance is not required for the control of quality to be satisfactory. Specific service delivery must be in substantial compliance with contract requirements and be suitable for the intended purpose of the contract. The overall control of quality must meet the specified performance thresholds for each required service.
1.8.2. Quality Control Program (QCP): The contractor shall develop a Daily Inspection Report and maintain a quality control plan to ensure Fire Alarm, Suppression, Sprinkler and Monitoring Systems services are performed in accordance with appropriate directives and commonly accepted commercial practices. A work schedule for providing the monthly ITM is required and shall be addressed again in item 5.1.

When overall monthly performance for a required service meets or exceeds the performance threshold, quality control is satisfactory. Only the original inspection results by the Government will be used to make this evaluation. Failure to meet the performance threshold for a required service means that quality control for that service for the observation period is unsatisfactory. Each service will be evaluated during each observation period, which is generally one month.
1.9. Performance Evaluation Meetings: Performance evaluation meetings may be required when requested by the Government or contractor.

The Facility Manager may observe the ITM tests and the sequence of operation. Installed fire alarm systems (detection), extinguishing systems (suppression & sprinkler), and monitoring systems located in areas that not readily accessible for safety considerations such as continuous process operations areas and areas that need equipment to reach system components that are congested are to be tested during scheduled operation shutdowns. The contractor is required to furnish their own equipment such as ladders, portable platforms, lifts or other equipment or tools necessary in order to properly and safely complete ITM of the systems. The tests shall be accomplished with minimal interruption to the occupying organization, and/or at intervals according to the UFC.
5.2.3. ITM Interval and Exceptions: These are a few exceptions to the UFC stated requirements as described below.
5.2.3.1. Kitchen Hoods: The kitchen hood exhaust fire suppression systems shall be cleaned and serviced (ITM) at six (6) month intervals as stated in the UFC. The fire alarm system and associated equipment shall be tested and serviced (ITM) at one (1) year intervals as stated in the UFC. This contract does not include cleaning or service of non-DOD hoods installed on APG.
5.2.3.2. ITM Schedules: The contractor shall establish the required ITM interval for each fire protection system based on the age of the system and the information provided on TE1A-1G. The contractor shall schedule the next appropriate ITM based on the previously performed ITM and the UFC provided guidance. Contractor shall perform the next interval ITM service due for each facility. For facilities with fire protection systems that were not ITMтАЩs for some circumstance, contractor shall consider the facility age or fire protection system and or the installation date as a base line to determine the next required ITM. The TE01 shall be examined closely by the contractor for needed changes on a monthly basis and updated as required.
5.2.3.3. Combination Inspections: It is required that the contractor perform all ITM in a particular facility simultaneously. Examples: when performing ITM on a fire pump that serves a building, the fire pump shall be ITMтАЩs at the same time the fire alarm panel/system is ITMтАЩs to ensure the fire pump controllers are properly signaling the FACP and transmitting to the Kingfisher Receiver. Simulating conditions that cause inputs to the FACP are not authorized, the contractor must actually test the function, shorting or jumping contacts is not acceptable for a substitution of full functional testing. A facility must be tested as one life safety system, not as separate components (i.e. sprinkler system separate from fire pump separate from fire alarm). The fire alarm technician and crew must be on site with the fire sprinkler technician and the fire pump technician to ensure the fire protection features in the entire facility are working as required. ITM shall not be performed on any system that is tagged out of service or is shut down for disposition of repair. Contractor shall record out of service findings on the reports.
5.3. Planned Work Schedule: Once per month after contract award the contractor and COR shall review the current inspection, testing, and maintenance schedule for all systems in facilities maintained under this contract.

5.6. Smoke and Heat Devices: On the fire alarm systems, the contractor shall maintain smoke and heat detectors as needed. The contractor shall internally clean the smoke and heat detectors only if a fault occurs. Cleaning internally may be needed at the time of testing/certification due to a fault or in some cases, as instructed by the COR. No smoke detector shall be cleaned more than (1) time per year without replacement. Smoke detectors that were not properly protected from dust and particulates by other contractors during construction shall not be included as a failure for the contractor.
5.7. Updating Computer Aided Drawings (CAD) Submissions: When facilities on this contract are remodeled or the fire alarm system is modified, or a new facility is added, the contractor shall produce an updated CAD drawing to support testing (ITM). The Contractor shall update drawings depicting the actual fire alarm system and include any updates and changes to reflect modifications made to the structure or fire alarm system and associated equipment. The labor cost for CAD work must be factored into the overall cost of the appropriate ITM Contract Line Item Number (CLIN). After the award of this contract, the existing CAD as-built drawings for most facilities will be provided to the contractor electronically. Historically, the labor time associated with updating drawings is on average 1.5-2.0 hours per facility.
5.7.1. As-Built Drawings: Some facilities on this contract do not have an as built or CAD drawing to support testing (ITM). The Contractor shall develop the missing drawing depicting the actual fire alarm system and associated equipment as well as possible and can be distinguished. The labor cost for this CAD development work must be factored into the overall cost of the appropriate ITM Contract Line Item Number (CLIN). A print out of the most current ITM test report and the CAD drawing shall be maintained inside the FACP at all tested buildings.
5.8. System Batteries: Generally, the basic batteries used at Aberdeen Proving Ground in the fire alarm systems are 7/8AH, 12AH, 18AH, 26AH, 35AH, 55AH, 79AH, and 105AH batteries. This is not a complete list of batteries to be used for this contract. The new addressable fire alarm systems may have different size or type batteries installed. The labor associated with replacing batteries is incidental to and must be factored into the overall cost of the appropriate ITM CLINтАЩs. Replacement of system batteries is required IAW the guidance stated in the UFC and NFPA. Large System Batteries above 150AH are not considered in the basic battery list and will be replaced under the repair CLIN.
