OpenJOCTM LEAN JOB ORDER CONTRACTING SOLUTIONS
The OpenJOC approach drives maximum productivity by leveraging proven LEAN construction delivery processes.
- Process – Assure full compliance with fundamental core LEAN JOC methods and workflows, as well as State, Local, and EDGAR compliance. Fully transparent and verifiable.
- Information – A shared common data environment, CDE, using LOCALLY RESEARCHED detailed line item construction cost data assures a mutual understanding of all project requirements. Industry standards terms and definitions, in plain English, are used with breakdowns for labor, material, and equipment costs (organized using CSI MasterFormat – 4BT is a licensed CSI MasterFormat provider). Line item modifiers that account for varying work methods, locations, quantities, etc. are also included.
- Uses – On-demand renovation, repair, maintenance, sustainability projects and minor new construction are fully supported.
- People – Real property owners and approved construction contractors work within an atmosphere of collaboration, respect, and mutual benefit.
- Technology – The role of technology is one of enabling consistent, low cost deployment, collaboration, and monitoring. Cloud technology provides a secure method for all participants to create, view, and share current actionable information. Communications, tasks, and documents are all maintained in a common digital environment.
- Assessment & Training – Key performance indicators, KPIs, and regular audits, as well as required ongoing training, assure proper JOC Program implementation, management, and continuous improvement.
