The Dormitory Authority of the State of New York (“DASNY”) is soliciting bids for its Job Order Contracting Program. A Job Order Contract (“JOC”) is a competitive bid, indefinite quantity construction contract. The contract includes a catalog of detailed construction tasks with pre-set unit prices and related technical specifications. Unit prices are updated annually. Contractors bid adjustment factors which cover their overhead and profit to be multiplied by the pre-set unit prices.

DASNY will enter into JOC contracts with successful bidder(s). JOC contractors will perform individual projects as assigned in various regions (see below) for DASNY construction programs. JOC contractors provide all management, supervision, documentation and ancillary design work (as required), in facilities throughout New York State. The cost of individual projects performed under JOC contracts will be based on the pre-set unit prices for the project’s work scope, any non-pre-priced items as appropriate and the JOC contractor’s competitively bid adjustment factors.
