Background The Portland VA Health Care System Research Service requires medical grade specialty gasses to conduct a wide array of scientific experiments. The Research Service constantly has over 200 VA funded research grants which encompasses over 490 active protocols for the various research studies. When a VA grant is awarded, it names a Principal Investigator (PI) that is responsible to complete the AIM and Scope of the project. Each Study is unique, and, in most cases, the PI has completed previous studies and/or has more than one active study. A hallmark of scientific discovery is consistency of reagents and supplies over many years so this itself does not become a variable. Consistent reagents, such as specialty gases mixed gases provided during each experiment or something of that nature allows for data integrity with results shared with other investigators and VA approved repositories. It is imperative that future experiments keep the same scientific continuity as previous experiments with 10-30 years of medical scientific value. This is a statement that cannot be undersold. Another important statement is that because our investigators are dual appointed with our affiliated medical school Oregon health & Sciences University (OHSU) and may have lab spaces at both institutions, to maintain scientific continuity with OHSU, medical gas is a requirement to continue cooperative research studies. The Research laboratories are located within the Portland VA campus in buildings 100,101,103,104 and 6. These specialty gasses which are case/study dependent are required at all these locations. Collection of scientific data is a continuum and future experiments are based upon previous results. In virtually all labs, the specialty gas comes in direct contact with living cells from many distinct tissue sources and maintaining viability of the cells is critically important. The base line scientific data mentioned above was derived from many years and hundreds of research studies that included the use of gasses provided via contract. Sourcing out to other vendors puts pressure on our PIs to approve of sourced vendors to ensure the gas mixtures meet study needs; but also, will need to be vetted through research studies as it potentially jeopardizes federal grant funds. Historically, due to the specific need to maintain this scientific continuity, the previously determined delivery schedule, and other factors, the current contract is exclusive to the Portland VA Research Service as the contactor provides ultra-purity gas and continuity with OHSU gas. The current contract does not service or provide gasses to the medical center other than research. Additionally, gas piping is hard plumbed into the facility with special medical gas provided tanks to accommodate the specific plumbing. 2. Scope The vendor must perform 100% of the contract. Any deviation from performance, the contractor is required to contact the research administration office immediately to ensure no impact disruption of study research. In the event of any [valid] emergencies, the contractor must deliver within 24 hours of initial report and, plan contingency in the event of potential delays. The types of gasses needed are listed in Table 1 below along with the inventoried list at the bottom of the SOW. The number and type of cylinders that the Contractor will be providing, and maintaining, varies based on need and projects funded (see Table 1 for the list of requirements). Investigators are dual appointed with our affiliated medical school Oregon health & Sciences University (OHSU) and may have lab spaces at both institutions, to maintain scientific continuity with OHSU, medical gas is a requirement to continue cooperative research studies as the gasses must match the quality of OHSU for scientific continuity. The Research laboratories are located within the Portland VA campus in buildings 100,101,103,104 & 6. These specialty gasses are required at all these locations. Flexibility is required on the part of the Contractor to be able to handle specialty orders (custom gas mixes and sizes) as well as emergency orders (delivery within <24 hours of request, with applicable fees) regardless of inclement weather or holiday schedules. If contractor is unable to deliver, contractor will contact research administration within 24 hours. The contractor will visit the Portland Campus, replace empty gas tanks with a full tank on a regular schedule, each week on Tuesday and Friday. The contractor will also deliver dry ice to specific locations identified by Portland Research. Portland VA Research will notify contractor of all Presidential approved federal holiday schedules. Deliveries scheduled for a federal holiday will be rescheduled for the date preceding the original delivery date. The contractor will notify Portland Research if they do not have the appropriate gas as specific below in the table and, provide a contingency timeframe of next availability of gas. Large liquid nitrogen tanks will be filled as needed. Other tanks will be swapped as they are depleted. Contractor will be provided a list of locations to independently monitor. Specifically, the contractor must not disrupt research laboratories with gaps of service, correct hook-ups, cylinder/tank placements as this would alter or cause critical detriment to the research scientific studies. This is due to the plumbing as mentioned in the background; any alteration of this could cause critical damage to specimens and/or loss of years of research work with sensitive materials being stored.

Performance Monitoring (if applicable) Contractor will be provided a list of locations to independently monitor and deliver to. On date of delivery, the Contractor s agent(s) will bring delivery slips to the Research Administrative office Building 101, Room 503 lockbox for secured delivery. If lockbox is unavailable, contractor will contact the research administration. Monthly invoices for each account will be electronically submitted per VA contracting guidance. Invoices will summarize the individual delivery slips for each delivery date during the month of service excluding hazardous, delivery, handling, or surcharges. The Research and Development finance team will reconcile these delivery tickets against the monthly invoices for each account. Annual tank inventories will be conducted with both VA Research service leadership and Contractor personnel. In the event there are location changes, research administration personnel will immediately report the changes to the contractor ensuring uninterrupted delivery schedules. The contractor will need to be available to receive additional orders aside from the regularly scheduled deliveries and billed appropriately. 4. Security Requirements Vendor will need VA issued PIV Badges for the appropriate number of employees assigned to this account. Badges will be coded such to provide access to the secure research areas on the Portland VA campus for buildings 100,101,103,104 and 6 as gasses are required at all these locations. Research service is considered a sensitive department in terms of credentialing & deliverables. The contractor will provide proof of COVID-19 vaccinations to contracting representative for record keeping prior to site delivery. Contractor and its agents will comply with all security requirements mandated by local and National sources to ensure its agents can perform work without supervision this includes providing the research administration office a list of updated names and contact information for technicians requiring secure access. Prior to delivery within 24 hours, the contractor will also notify research administration immediately if technician(s) do not have the proper [PIV] credentials to perform the scheduled delivery. If PIV credentialing is unavailable to the contractor or technician, the research administration office is required to provide escort to the contracted technicians to research areas while the technicians continue to gain PIV credentialing. PIV credential services must occur (at the least) 30 days prior to delivering within required areas. 5. Government-Furnished Equipment (GFE)/Government-Furnished Information (GFI) N/A 6.

The QASP provides a systematic method to evaluate performance for the stated CONTRACT. This QASP explains the following: What will be monitored? How monitoring will take place. Who will conduct the monitoring? How monitoring efforts and results will be documented. This QASP does not detail how the vendor accomplishes the work. Rather, the QASP is created with the premise that the vendor is responsible for management and quality control actions to meet the terms of the CONTRACT. It is the Government s responsibility to be objective, fair, and consistent in evaluating performance. This QASP is a living document and the Government may review and revise it on a regular basis. However, the Government shall coordinate changes with the vendor through CONTRACT modification. Copies of the original QASP and revisions shall be provided to the vendor and Government officials implementing surveillance activities. Government Roles and Responsibilities: The following personnel shall oversee and coordinate surveillance activities. Contracting Officer (CO) The CO shall ensure performance of all necessary actions for effective contracting, ensure compliance with the CONTRACT terms, and shall safeguard the interests of the United States in the contractual relationship. The CO shall also assure that the Vendor receives impartial, fair, and equitable treatment under this CONTRACT. The CO is ultimately responsible for the final determination of the adequacy of the Vendor s performance. Contracting Officer s Representative (COR) The COR is responsible for technical administration of the CONTRACT and shall assure proper Government surveillance of the Vendor s performance. The COR shall keep a quality assurance file. The COR is not empowered to make any contractual commitments or to authorize any contractual changes on the Government s behalf. Performance Standards: The Vendor is responsible for performance of ALL terms and conditions of the CONTRACT. CORs will provide CONTRACT progress reports annually to the CO reflecting performance on this plan and all other aspects of the resultant CONTRACT. The performance standards outlined in this QASP shall be used to determine the level of vendor performance in the elements defined. Performance standards define desired services. The Government performs surveillance to determine the level of vendor performance to these standards. Methods of QA Surveillance: Various methods exist to monitor performance. The COR shall use the surveillance methods listed below in the administration of this QASP. Direct observation: 100% surveillance Periodic inspections: inspections scheduled and reported monthly per COR delegation or as needed. Validated user/customer complaints: data will be collected from actual patient complaints. Complaints will be investigated and verified. Random periodic inspections: vendor logbooks will be reviewed by COR as necessary. Verification and/or documentation provided by vendor: vendor provided information on services provided to COR. Invoices articulate & match exactly with vendor s price list for that contract and period of performance awarded not to exceed the ceiling amount awarded. Performance Requirements: The Performance Requirements are listed below. The Government shall use these standards to determine vendor performance and shall compare vendor performance to the standard and assign a rating. At the end of the performance period, these ratings will be used, in part, to establish the past performance of the vendor on the CONTRACT and for purposes of providing the CO with information for inclusion on CPARS: Measures Performance Requirement Acceptable Quality Level Surveillance Method 1. Vendor shall submit accurate invoices Vendor to submit accurate invoices (CONTRACT and task order under VAAR Clause 852.232-72) 100% Weekly invoice inspections: inspections scheduled and reported weekly per COR delegation or, as needed. Regular deliveries: Portland VA Medical Center weekly on Tuesday s & Friday s (including all holidays and in inclement weather) during R&D business hours. Vendor to meet delivery timelines (SOW under Scope ) 100% of all pickups Scheduled deliveries will commence as indicated in the contract SOW. Any changes to deliveries must be requested 24hours in advanced and approved by PVAMC R&D. Vendor communications will be monitored by R&D team as needed. PIV/Location Access Vendor has a plan in place for handling any newly hired employees ensuring certifications, licensing, background checks, & trainings are requested and met prior to making deliveries without escort. 100% Vendor will provide the research administration office a list of updated names and contact information for technicians requiring secure access per each update. Prior to delivery within 24 hours, the contractor will also notify research administration immediately if technician(s) do not have the proper [PIV] credentials to perform the scheduled delivery. Order requests (aside from regularly scheduled deliveries) Vendor will meet all order requests made by PVAMC R&D labs immediately. 100% All order requests made by labs (aside from regularly scheduled deliveries) will be annotated on vendor order forms. Confirmations of fulfillment by vendor and receipt by customer/lab will be provided to COR immediately. COR will keep receipts filed appropriately for billing purposes. Billing for orders outside of regular deliveries will be invoiced separately from regular deliveries by vendor and, paid timely by reviewing COR on weekly basis. If vendor performance does not meet the Acceptable Quality level, the CO shall inform the Vendor. This will normally be in writing unless circumstances necessitate verbal communication. In any case the CO shall document the discussion and place it in the contract file. When the COR and the CO determines formal written communication is required, the COR shall prepare a Contract Discrepancy Report (CDR), and present it to CO. The CO will in turn review and will present to the vendor's program manager for corrective action. The Vendor shall acknowledge receipt of the CDR in writing. The CDR will specify if the Vendor is required to prepare a corrective action plan to document how the Vendor shall correct the unacceptable performance and avoid a recurrence. The CDR will also state how long after receipt the Vendor has to present this corrective action plan to the CO. The Government shall review the Vendor's corrective action plan to determine acceptability. The CO is ultimately responsible for the final determination of the adequacy of the vendor s performance and the acceptability of the vendor s corrective action plan. Any CDRs may become a part of the supporting documentation for any contractual action deemed necessary by the CO or for purposes of reporting vendor past performance on CPARS.
