Posted July 14, 20204 yr comment_53742 Does anyone have a link to a good Contract Administration SOP, guide, or plan? Thanks!
July 15, 20204 yr comment_53749 Can you please be more specific as to the applicability of the SOP, guide, or plan? Will it be applied by the government or by a contractor? What type of contract? Et cetera.

Consider doing a internet search on the term "COR Work Plan". In today's word it is akin to a SOP on the government side and the information found may be of an assist for your quest.
July 15, 20204 yr Author comment_53759 Specifically, I'm looking for guidance on administering a Government contract. How to, etc. It will be to assist contractor employees in administering contracts for the Government.

July 15, 20204 yr comment_53760 Let's be very clear: you are looking for an SOP, guide, or other document that explains to contract employees (hired by the government via contract or by independent contractor agreement) how to administer a contract. Please confirm. And please confirm you are looking only for post-award administration, not for guidance that spans the entire lifecycle of a government contract. I.e., from contract award through close-out.

I'm not the CO, but I imagine the contractor personnel will do a lot of the legwork with Government folks doing things like "ordering changes in contract performance or contract quantities, taking action based on evaluations of contractor performance, and accepting or rejecting contractor products or services)."

Thanks. All right. Now we're getting somewhere. First, I do not know of such a document; however, I don't think it would be difficult to create one. The outline would be created from DCMA instructions and a surveillance plan, and the content would be populated from the same instructions and the FAR. Sorry I cannot be of more assistance
July 15, 20204 yr comment_53770 Former CO, if you do not know what the contractor personnel will be doing, how can you create a plan for them to follow?
