Elevated Tank No. 7 Electrical Improvements - OMNIA Co-Op JOC Order Contract Proposal
History
In July and again in August of 2021, Public Works advertised Invitations to Bid (ITB) to perform electrical improvements for the Elevated Tank #7 Rehabilitation Project. On both advertisements, no bids were received for the electrical portion of the project. In order to complete the project, staff contacted CORE Construction of Peoria, Illinois to complete the work through an OMNIA Co-Op Job Order Contract proposal.
Job Order Contracting (JOC) is a project delivery method used to procure numerous, commonly encountered construction needs quickly and easily for a wide variety of renovations, repairs, and construction projects under one contract. These competitively bid contracts are based on established or published unit prices via a unit price book or a price list with a multiplier (coefficient) applied to the unit prices. The unit prices are used to price construction tasks associated with the scope of work. Municipalities can take advantage of JOCs through purchasing co-ops such as Omnia.
