Job Order Contract (JOC) for Water Production Well Drilling Services

The City of Tucson is seeking up to five contractors to provide annual well drilling services.

Job Order Contracting is an alternative delivery method for construction of public works projects. JOC's differ from the standard project-specific, low bid contracts in that they are indefinite-quantity contracts, which can be awarded on the basis of qualifications. Best value may be considered in awarding the JOC or in awarding job orders under the JOC contract.

Each individual job order contract will establish its own individual project limit. Mayor and Council have approved ordinance 12175 which states that individual projects may not exceed $5,000,000 unless the Mayor and Council approves a higher limit for that project.
