2.2. PROJECT DESCRIPTION
The work to be performed under this contract includes the furnishing of all labor, materials, and equipment for a Job Order Contract.
A Job Order Contract (hereinafter called JOC) is a competitively bid, firm fixed priced indefinite quantity contract. The contract documents include a Construction Task Catalog® containing a collection of detailed repair and construction tasks and specifications that have established Unit Prices. All Unit Prices are based on local labor, materials and equipment prices and are for the direct cost of construction. Ordering is accomplished by means of issuance of a Job Order pursuant to the Contract.
The County uses the JOC System from The Gordian Group (Gordian) for their JOC Program. The Gordian JOC Solutions includes Gordian’s proprietary JOC Software and JOC Applications, construction cost data, and Construction Task Catalog® which shall be used by the Contractor solely for the purpose of fulfilling its obligations under this Contract, including the preparation and submission of Job Order Proposals, Price Proposals, subcontractor lists, and other requirements specified by the County. The Contractor shall be required to execute Gordian’s JOC System License and Fee Agreement, and pay a 1% JOC System License Fee to obtain access to the Gordian JOC Solution™. The JOC System License Fee applies to all Job Orders issued to the Contractor under the terms of this Contract. The Contractor shall include the JOC System License Fee in the Adjustment Factors.
The Contractor, under the JOC, furnishes all management, labor, materials, equipment, and required plan check and permits from local jurisdictions needed to perform the work.
2.3. CONTRACT INFORMATION
On Friday, August 19, 2022; Contract Documents will be available at: SacCountyEbids
SAFCA's Standard General Specifications, which are incorporated by reference in the Contract Documents, may be downloaded from the attachments tab or found on SAFCA's website at https://www.safca.org/about/contracting-opportunities/.
The contracts awarded will be on the basis which results in the lowest total overall cost to the County for the contracts.
It is intended that4 contract(s) will be awarded – one to each of the4 lowest responsive bids.
Each bidder may submit one and only one bid for this solicitation. If a bidder submits more than one bid for this solicitation; then that bidder will be disqualified and those bids will be returned to the bidder unopened.
The Contractor shall have the opportunity to perform Job Orders during the term of the contract as described in the JOC Special Conditions, 8.1 (e.g. ordering work by considering rotation, past and current performance of Job Orders, responsiveness, and/or proposal price vs. independent estimate). The Maximum Contract Amount for each JOC will be $2,000,000.00 each. The Contractor is not guaranteed to receive this volume of Task Orders - this is an anticipated amount.
The term of the JOC will be for 365 calendar days or expenditure of the Maximum Contract Amount of the Contract, whichever occurs first.
All Job Orders issued during the term of this contract shall be valid and in effect notwithstanding that the Detailed Scope of Work may be performed, payments may be made, and the guarantee period may continue, after such period has expired. All terms and conditions of the contract apply to each Job Order.
2.4. JOC Adjustment Factor
Each bidder must submit two price Adjustment Factors to be considered responsive. These same Adjustment Factors must apply to all Unit Prices of Pre-priced Tasks listed in the Construction Task Catalog® of the contract documents. The first Adjustment Factor will be applied to that work anticipated to be accomplished during Normal Working Hours. The second Adjustment Factor will be applied to that work anticipated to be accomplished during Other Than Normal Working Hours.
The Construction Task Catalog® is priced at a net value of 1.0000. The bid shall be an increase to (e.g., 1.2345) or decrease (e.g., 0.9876) to the Unit Prices listed in the Construction Task Catalog®. Bidders who submit separate Adjustment Factors for separate Unit Prices will be considered non-responsive and their bid will be rejected.
For bid evaluation purposes only, it is estimated that the work to be accomplished during Normal Working Hours will = 80%, and Other Than Normal Working Hours will = 20%. However, actual work may deviate substantially. These work distributions shall be used to determine the Award Criteria Figure only.
