A Job Order Contract is an indefinite quantity contract pursuant to which the San Francisco Public Utilities Commission may accomplish a series of projects with a single, competitively bid contract awarded before the projects are identified. The bid documents include a Construction Task Catalog® containing construction tasks with preset Unit Prices. All Unit Prices are based on local labor, material and equipment prices and are for the direct cost of construction. Contractors bid Adjustment Factors to the pre-set Unit Prices. Work is accomplished by issuing Task Orders to the successful contractor during the two (2) year term of this contract.

A Class “A” California Contractors License is required to bid. In addition to an A-License, the prime bidder must have successfully completed work on five public works projects within the past five years, each project with a minimum construction value of $600,000.

Per Administrative Code Chapter 14B, bid discounts may be applied. For each contract, the LBE Subcontracting Participation Requirement is set at 16% for Small and Micro-LBEs. Only Contract Monitoring Division (CMD) certified San Francisco Small and Micro-LBEs can be utilized to meet this requirement. The subcontractors designated as LBEs must be CMD certified for the listed trace in order to count towards the goal. Please contact Contract Compliance Officer Regina Chan at (415) 551-4335 for CMD relate issues.
