JOB ORDER CONTRACT (JOC) FOR ELEVATOR SERVICES

The County of Orange OC Public Works is soliciting proposals for a Job Order Contract (JOC) specifically for Elevator Services, with an estimated maximum value of $2,000,000 over a one-year term starting from the contract commencement date. This contract employs a Unit Price Book (UPB) featuring preset unit prices derived from The Gordian Group's proprietary Job Order Contracting (JOC) Solution, which includes the JOC Information Management System (IMS), job order applications, construction cost data, and the Construction Task Catalog®. Prospective contractors must execute Gordian’s General Terms of Use and pay a system license fee, which is incorporated into their bid adjustment factors. Only bidders that successfully passed a pre-qualification phase are invited to submit proposals, and award will be made on a best value basis, integrating both qualitative criteria and price considerations. The contract requires adherence to labor compliance standards, prevailing wage laws, bonding and insurance requirements, and full compliance with applicable California building codes and public works regulations. Work will be authorized via individual job orders issued by the County on an as-needed basis throughout the term. Evaluation of proposals includes multiple phases, with emphasis on demonstrated management competency and financial strength, followed by presentations or interviews. The best value award process balances qualitative scoring with price adjustment factors related to normal and non-normal working hours. Contractors must meet minimum self-performance thresholds and possess required licenses appropriate to their trade. The contract imposes strict security requirements for contractor personnel working on County sites, including mandatory background checks and clearances. Performance evaluation includes on-site inspections by the County, with the contractor responsible for off-site activities and correcting any deficiencies. The contract operates as an indefinite quantity vehicle with no guaranteed minimum volume, and each job order must comply with technical specifications and quality standards described in the Construction Task Catalog and related attachments. Submissions must be made electronically by the specified deadline, adhering to format and content requirements defined by the County. Overall, this contract framework supports efficient procurement of elevator maintenance and repair services within a structured, compliant, and competitive environment.
