Job order contracting is an alternative delivery method for facility renovation and remodel. It has been around since the 1990's but is gaining in popularity as owners seek integrated project delivery solutions. But the unit price structure of JOC can be confusing for owners and contractors alike, and establishing a long-term contract like this requires some preparatory work beyond what is necessary for a single project. This OnDemand Webinar demystifies the pricing and management of JOC. Necessary steps for establishing and bidding a JOC, from both the owner's and the contractor's perspective, will be addressed, as will personnel and management requirements once a JOC is in place. The JOC delivery order process will be described, with special emphasis on contractor and owner responsibilities. Owners should emerge from this program with a roadmap to procuring and managing a JOC. Contractors should emerge with an understanding of how to develop a coefficient, what skillsets are needed to scope, estimate and perform work under a JOC.
Learning Objectives:
- You will be able to describe the competitive pricing component.
- You will be able to discuss preparing for and managing a JOC.
- You will be able to explain the JOC delivery order process.
- You will be able to review JOC and other progressive delivery methods.
