OCSD Staff Recommendation
•Sponsor Legislation on Concept 2:Amend Public Contracting Code forsanitationtoutilizeJobOrderContracting(JOC)as a bid procurementprocedure.
•Proposed Solution:To allow sanitation districts whose service area includes apopulationof1millionpeople,or more,the ability to utilize Job Order Contracting asabidprocurementprocedure.
•Rationale:
–The JOC process is a flexible,cost-effective unit price contracting method usedtocompletemaintenance,repair,and refurbishment of County infrastructureandbuildingfacilities.
–Instead of dealing with the time and expense of bidding each project separately,with JOC,the contract has already been competitively awarded for an indefinitenumberofprojects,enabling contractors to respond quickly and construction tobeginfaster.
–Provides for accelerated project delivery,reduces administrative costs,andlowersdirectconstructioncostswhilemeetingalllocal,State,and Federalprocurementrequirements.
