(a) The CQR Program is a formal data-driven evaluation of quality performance to predetermined standards and the presentation of that evaluation in a manner that induces change towards improved contract quality. This continuous review cycle, using a standardized checklist, collects and maintains data to enable enterprise oversight, decision making, and corrective action planning. The CQR is synchronized with Contracting Officer (KO) Warrant Program reviews (see 1.602-90 ).

(b) For procedures associated with CQR Program roles and responsibilities, see DLAM 5025.03, Contract Quality Review (CQR) Program ( https://issue-p.dla.mil/Published_Issuances/5025.03.pdf ).
