This Notice to Contractors is for the award of a single Job Order Contract (JOC), which is a competitively bid, firm fixed-priced, indefinite quantity contract. The Contract scope of work includes a collection of detailed repair and construction tasks and specifications that have established unit prices. It is awarded to the “Contractor” for the accomplishment of repair, alteration, modernization, maintenance, rehabilitation, demolition and construction of infrastructure, buildings, structures, or other real property. The University issues to the Contractor discrete, fixed-price task or job orders, as needed, under the contract. Under the JOC concept, the Contractor furnishes all management, documentation, labor, materials, and equipment needed to perform the work.

The JOC agreement awarded under this solicitation will have a minimum total contract value of $0.00 and a maximum total contract value of $1,000,000. The term of the contract will be twelve (12) months, unless the maximum value of the contract is achieved prior to the completion of the contract term.

In the event that the contractor submitting the lowest responsive and responsible bid refuses to enter into a contract with the CSU if tendered, or, in the event that the contractor materially breaches the JOC contract necessitating its termination, CSU reserves the right to award a second JOC under the same solicitation, provided such award is made within 120 days of the bid opening.

Each bidder offering a proposal must comply with bidding provisions of Article 02.00 et seq. in the Contract General Conditions, and should be familiar with all the provisions of the Contract General Conditions and Supplementary General Conditions.
