Job Order Contracting

MAY 13, 2019

LEAN asset management is simply defined as best value life-cycle management of the built environment, inclusive of buildings, roadways, utilities, transportation systems, bridges, dams, and landscapes. An example of a LEAN procurement and construction delivery method is the OpenJOC(TM) Job Order Contracting Framework.

A focus upon these and principles associated with the life-cycle management of the built environment would be of far more value than 3d modeling. Adjusting priorities would provide more significant value such as: 1. More education and resources should be expended upon life-cycle management of the build environment vs. 3D modeling.
