Gordian’s Job Order Contracting (JOC) is an Indefinite Delivery, Indefinite Quantity (IDIQ) construction delivery method that allows many projects to be completed through a competitively-awarded contract. This single-solicitation process enables projects to start faster and creates partnerships between project owners and awarded contractors, resulting in higher quality work. As the creator of JOC, Gordian has decades of experience implementing and supporting successful JOC programs. With Job Order Contracting, organizations avoid the administrative expense of sending every project out to bid. Every Gordian JOC project is priced from the Construction Cost Catalog® (CTC), a specialized Unit Price Book developed by our engineers and construction experts. Gordian’s JOC solutions provide you with immediate access to highly qualified, local contractors who know that better work creates more potential to participate in your JOC program. Gordian has proven success helping clients meet, track and exceed their inclusion goals for disadvantaged, local, small, minority-owned, veteran-owned and woman-owned business enterprises. Every Gordian JOC program is designed with our customers in mind. We develop individual Construction Task Catalogs that reflect the realities of their local construction market and the needs of their organization. Gordian’s secure, cloud-based project management platform puts all the tools to run a best-in-class program at your fingertips. Gordian’s in-house JOC experts provide end-to-end program support to ensure every JOC program is a success.
