The University awarded a contract for Job Order Contracting to The Gordian Group of Mauldin, South Carolina, for an estimated $120,000.
The Job Order Contracting "JOC" program, specifically designed to allow public owners to accomplish routine maintenance and construction projects faster and at significantly lower cost than with traditional systems of contracting, is used by the University to complete a significant portion of its construction requirements. Currently the University uses the JOC program to complete approximately $10,000,000 in job orders every year. The primary components of the JOC program are a unit price book (customized to include Chicago area material), labor and equipment prices, and software that is customized to meet the data collection and reporting requirements of the University.
This purchase is only economically available from a single source because the
