"We offer a number
of services, each highly
regarded within the industry"

The JOC contractor furnishes a project manager, a group of construction managers, superintendents, and quality control personnel to plan, estimate and execute projects assigned by the district. These people are furnished without cost to the district. Their cost is recovered through the execution of discrete projects assigned through the JOC. As facility needs are identified, projects are assigned. The JOC contractor then investigates, plans, estimates, and schedules the work to be accomplished.

The customer participates in this process by reviewing and approving the Contractor's proposed method of work accomplishment and cost estimates. A single project could be as simple as the addition of a handicapped entrance ramp to a school, or involve assembly of all the deferred work requests into a comprehensive single maintenance project to be accomplished in one summer. If design services are required, the Contractor can deliver that faster and possibly at a significantly reduced cost to the district.

JOC is adaptable and may be organized to meet the customer's needs rapidly and reliably. If the customer needs work accomplished that is maintenance related, the contractor can furnish mechanical personnel to undertake those services. JOC is not a replacement for the customer's basic organizational staff, but is instead a tool to make that staff more effective and responsive to its customers. 

School districts typically predicts a reasonable work volume to be accomplished during the term of the contract. Smaller districts may estimate less work than a large one but if it is trying to execute a bond issue to catch up on deferred maintenance, it may have a much greater need than a larger one.
