In the recent May edition of the Commonwealth Contractor I had the opportunity to write an article on Job Order Contracting and how it is helping the public facilities with their renovation and repair efforts. The article is titled Job Order Contracting a Collaborative Solution For Virginia Facilities Owners. At the core of this article is the ability to share on the benefits of JOC, including:
· Responsive support allows for reduced backlog of projects
· More funds are applied to construction instead of procurement costs
· The majority of the funds go to the local economy
· Growth of small, minority and disadvantaged subcontracting businesses
· Dependable ongoing relationships
· Reduced or eliminates claims, change orders and punch lists
Every public facilities person needs a job order contracting program!
For more information public facilities managers and construction managers should look to the industry association, CJE The Center For JOC Excellence and their regional chapter.
