SUMMARY:
Approval of the Job Order Contracts for Electrical Services, Roofing Services and Slurry & Paving Services will expedite the completion of County of Orange repair, rehabilitation and maintenance projects and improve public safety and customer service.
BACKGROUND INFORMATION:
On June 29, 2010, the Board of Supervisors (Board) approved the establishment of a Job Order Contract (JOC) program to expedite completion of repair and rehabilitation projects involving existing County of Orange (County) facilities and structures. The JOC program includes a competitive public works bidding process based on a price adjustment factor that is multiplied by the unit prices of materials, equipment and labor established by the County consultant, The Gordian Group, Inc., and approved by the Board as part of the bid documents.
The purpose of the JOC program is to expedite services, as defined by the Contractors State License Board (CSLB), for maintenance and repair work involving health, safety and mandated projects. These efforts include major and minor repairs and replacements as requested by County departments. OC Public Works utilizes JOCs to provide services to multiple agencies on an as-needed basis. The work is assigned to whichever contractor is available and, depending upon the request, work can be assigned to multiple contractors at the same time.
The current JOCs for Electrical Services were approved by the Board on March 24, 2020, and expired on April 11, 2021. Three JOCs for Electrical Services were approved in an amount not to exceed $4.9 million each, for a cumulative total amount not to exceed $14.7 million. In order to maintain the Electrical Services, a new slate of JOCs is necessary.
The current JOC for Roofing Services was approved by the Board on February 25, 2020, and expired on April 11, 2021. One JOC for Roofing Services was approved in an amount not to exceed $4.9 million. In order to maintain the Roofing Services, a new slate of JOCs is necessary.
The current JOCs for Slurry & Paving Services were approved by the Board on February 25, 2020, and expired on April 11, 2021. Two JOCs for Slurry & Paving Services were approved in an amount not to exceed $4.9 million each, for a cumulative total amount not to exceed $9.8 million. In order to maintain the Slurry & Paving Services, a new slate of JOCs is necessary
On December 10, 2020, the Director of OC Public Works approved bid documents for use with the JOC program for Electrical Services, Roofing Services and Slurry & Paving Services and authorized the advertisement for bids. The bid documents were advertised in several industry publications and on the County online bid system. Contractors were required to submit a pre-qualification questionnaire and pre-qualify to submit a proposal for these services. The Bid Summaries are included as Attachments I, J and K.
The JOC Program functions as an extension of the available workforce to maintain and repair County assets without incurring the full-time burden of employing individual companies and personnel. The JOC contractors are not guaranteed or assured work, but respond to the needs of the County on an On-Call basis. Depending on their current workload, these contractors have limited crews that may or may not be available to respond to the County’s needs. Therefore, it is prudent to have more than one On-Call contractor available should other contractors on the list lack the capacity to respond. Task Orders for the physical work for JOC contracts are generated as a result of various events. The following events are examples that could potentially generate Task Orders for JOC contracts:
a. |
Unplanned emergency repair or replacement necessitated by a failure of existing equipment and/or physical failure of a building component. |
b. |
Planned maintenance and/or repair/replacement of existing structure component or equipment. |
c. |
Unforeseen events (burst pipes, earthquake, fire, flooding, pandemic, etc.) that necessitate repair/replacement/rehabilitation of a County asset. |
d. |
Planned or unplanned usage of County JOC contract by one of the County Agencies/Departments to solve operational issues in a County owned asset/building. |

The contracts are coming to the Board less than 30 days before their commencement due to additional negotiation time required with the contractors.
The contracts with All American Asphalt and R.J. Noble Company do not include subcontractors or pass through to other providers. The remaining contracts, due to the nature of the services, could require the addition of subcontractors. In order to add subcontractor(s) to the contracts, the provider/contractor must seek express consent from OC Public Works. Should the addition of a subcontractor impact the scope of work and/or contract amounts, OC Public Works will bring the items back to the Board for approval. See Attachment H for the Contract Summary Form.
Compliance with CEQA: This action is not a project within the meaning of CEQA Guidelines Section 15378 and is therefore not subject to CEQA, since it does not have the potential for resulting in either a direct physical change in the environment or a reasonably foreseeable indirect physical change in the environment. The approval of this agenda item does not commit the County to a definite course of action in regard to a project since it involves contracts for services associated with potential future County repair, rehabilitation and maintenance projects. This proposed activity is therefore not subject to CEQA. Any individual, specific work authorized pursuant to this contract will be reviewed for compliance with CEQA.
FINANCIAL IMPACT:
Appropriations for the JOC program are included in the FY 2020-21 Budget for OC Public Works, Budget Control 080, and will be included in the budgeting process for future years.
In an effort to consolidate the administration of various internal JOC programs under OC Public Works for Countywide utilization, the amount not to exceed has been set to maximize utilization of the JOCs by OC Public Works and other County departments. Individual job orders will be encumbered as needed by various departments, provided sufficient appropriations are available in the budget and future budget years.
The proposed contracts include provisions stating the contracts are subject to, and contingent upon, applicable budgetary appropriations being approved by the Board for each fiscal year during the term of the contracts. If such appropriations are not approved, the contracts may be immediately terminated without penalty to the County
