WHAT IS JOC?

One competitively bid contract. Many projects.

Job Order Contracting is an indefinite-quantity delivery method that enables facility owners to accomplish a large number of repair, maintenance and construction projects with a single, competitively bid contract.

It eliminates the time and expense of repeating the normal design-bid-build cycle for each project, helping owners decrease project duration and cost while increasing quality.

MART JOC

A DFW JOC partner built for response.

MART’s presence in the DFW area allows the company to respond effectively to JOC clients. Its ability to deliver large and small projects safely, on time, under budget and with high quality has helped establish MART as a go-to JOC contractor.

MART formed its JOC Department in 2010. The division’s first-year volume was $312,000; the JOC document supplied by MART states that a later annual volume exceeded $13 million.

BACKGROUND

Why JOC exists.

JOC was developed by the Corps of Engineers in 1985 to speed execution of repair and renovation construction projects. The strategy bypasses a separate traditional bid process for every project and gives customers access to a flexible, cost-effective and responsive contractor without repeating a lengthy procurement cycle.
