A Job Order Contract is an indefinite quantity construction contract intended to provide VTA with an efficient and flexible method for procuring maintenance, repair, rehabilitation, alteration, modernization, and in-kind replacement construction services at VTA facilities and properties. JOC is structured as a competitively awarded master agreement under which VTA may issue individual task orders ("each a Task Order") during the Contract term for discrete scopes of Work. Task Orders may be issued on an as-needed basis, as determined solely by VTA, for projects at one or more VTA locations. The Contract does not authorize the Contractor to perform Work except through issuance of a Task Order or other written authorization expressly permitted by the Contract Documents. When VTA determines that a Task Order may be issued for a particular project, VTA will provide or jointly develop with the Contractor a "Detailed Scope of Work" ("DSOW") describing the required Work. Based on the DSOW, the Contractor shall prepare and submit a "Task Order Proposal" ("Proposal") in accordance with the provisions of the Contract Documents. Unless otherwise provided in the Contract Documents, the Task Order pricing will generally be based on the construction activities contained in the "Construction Task Catalog®" ("CTC"), which establishes pre-set "Unit Prices" (each a "Unit Price") for specific construction tasks, materials and associated installation activities. The "Adjustment Factors" bid by the awarded Contractor will be applied to the applicable CTC Unit Prices to determine the proposed fixed price for completion of the DSOW.
