  How are JOC contracts awarded?

 

  

The procurement process for Job Order Contracting starts with the identification
of a need. The first step of the process consists of issuing a Request for
Qualification (RFQ). Responding firms are then evaluated using a set of
criteria determined by the owner. These criteria usually consist of:
   Offeror’s qualifications and past performance (including references)
The firm’s previous experience with JOC contracts
Demonstrated ability to handle multiple jobs simultaneously
Qualifications of key personnel
Financial responsibility
 Safety record
Quality assurance program or quality management plan
Project management methods
Information technology systems
Any other criteria the owner deems relevant

Unit Price Book (UPB) to establish a base price estimate for each task
Price coefficient used to determine the actual cost of each task
Guaranteed minimum amount of work
