Job Order Contracting (JOC) Introduction - an Alternative Delivery Method for Smaller Public Works Projects
OVERVIEW STATEMENT:
recommendation
Job Order Contracting (JOC) is an alternative delivery method for smaller Public Works projects. Unlike the other alternative public works contracting methods, agencies seeking to use JOC do not need to obtain the approval of the state Project Review Committee. Public Works would like to provide an overview of what JOC is and how Public Works plans to use it.
Job Order Contracting is a construction procurement method similar to an on-call contract. It uses pre-established unit prices for various construction tasks, allowing for quick project initiation and reduced administrative overhead compared to traditional bidding processes. Typical projects that use this method are facility renovations, repair and maintenance work, and small construction projects across multiple locations.
The proposed JOC terms are for a two-year, $2 million contract[JM1][ED2], with the option for a one-year, $1 million extension, for a not to exceed total amount of $3 million. The contract terms also provide a guaranteed minimum of $25,000 in work. Individual task orders will not exceed $500,000. For task orders over $300,000, staff would seek Council approval prior to executing the task order.
