This document, "Technical Exhibit 8.12 Example Payment Calculations When RESD is Used," provides a detailed methodology for calculating payment deductions when Random Sampling with Extrapolated Deductions (RSED) is employed for contract surveillance. It outlines the process the Government will use to determine sample sizes and assess quality levels.

• Calculation Example: Illustrates the step-by-step process for calculating payment deductions, including:
  • Task value percentages for different work areas (e.g., Grass Cutting, Timely Completion).
  • Maximum payment for acceptable work.
  • Cost per unit.
  • Observed defect rates and revised defect rates after corrections.
  • Service value lost for inspected lots.
  • Extrapolated deductions for uninspected lots.
  • Administrative costs.
  • Total deductions.

This exhibit is crucial for bidders to understand how contract performance will be monitored and how payment deductions will be calculated if RSED is used.
