About this file
Summary
This is a Supplemental Conditions document for Job Order Contracting (JOC) Services issued by Dorchester County, South Carolina, for Trade services across multiple county facilities. The County seeks qualified contractors to perform construction-related work through a Job Order Contracting model, with work to be assigned on an as-needed basis at various sites and facilities under county jurisdiction. A pre-proposal meeting via GoToWebinar is scheduled for December 18, 2025, at 10:00 a.m. EST, with registration available through the provided link. The base contract term is one year with four optional one-year renewal periods, subject to mutual agreement between the County and contractor. The contract is indefinite in quantity, meaning contractors are not guaranteed any minimum work volume. All Job Orders issued during the contract term remain valid even if work extends beyond the term expiration, and contractors may withdraw at the end of the base term with 90 days' written notice.
Pricing is structured through five adjustment factors applied to unit prices in the Construction Task Catalog: Non-Secure Areas at Normal Working Hours (40% weight), Non-Secure Areas at Other Than Normal Working Hours (30% weight), Secure Areas at Normal Working Hours (15% weight), Secure Areas at Other Than Normal Working Hours (10% weight), and Non Pre-Priced Tasks (5% weight). All unit prices are set at 1.0000 and adjustment factors serve as multipliers to increase or decrease these base prices. Contractors must maintain a minimum 51% self-performance requirement calculated by labor hours at the project site through the working foreperson level, with failure to meet this requirement constituting grounds for contract termination. A JOC Administrative Fee of 6.00% of the Job Order Price applies to all work and must be paid to The Gordian Group. Contractors are required to obtain all necessary state and local licenses and must provide key personnel including a full-time contract representative, office manager, and superintendents (at minimum one superintendent per four Job Orders). Performance and payment bonds equal to 100% of the Job Order Price are required when requested, with the County reimbursing bond costs up to 2% of the Job Order Price.

Total for Non-Prepriced Tasks performed by subcontractors = D x Non-Prepriced Task Adjustment Factor
5.2.3.

Prepriced Task is less than the actual cost of the labor and material to perform such Prepriced Task, the County may permit the Contractor to be paid for such Prepriced Task as a Non-Prepriced Task or use Prepriced Tasks for labor and the material component pricing of the Prepriced Task to cover the actual costs incurred.
