  6. JOC ON-RAMP: • VTrans may issue a RFP to expand the pool of Contractors with Primary Contracts. OFF-RAMP: • Contractors will be evaluated after completion of each Job Order. • Poor performance or chronic lack of availability can lead to contract termination.

  7. JOC Order Bid Form • JOC Order Bid Forms will be sent to the contractor by email. • VTrans may place Job Orders with contractors based upon hourly rates orrequest lump sum pricing. • Hourly Rates Only: VTrans will review JOCs, identify contractors with the equipment type sought, and select the contractor that represents the best value to the State for that Job Order. • Lump Sum Pricing or Materials: VTrans will request at least 3 quotes from JOC holders prior to placing the order with the contractor that represents the best value to the State.
