The document discusses the challenges and frustrations faced in the construction and facilities management industry, such as design specifications not meeting needs, non-performing contractors, budget overruns, and delayed project completion. It emphasizes the need for a change in thinking and the adoption of alternative delivery methods. The document introduces Job Order Contracting (JOC) as one such method, where the owner and contractor work together towards the satisfactory completion of each delivery order within a predetermined budget and without change orders or punch lists. It acknowledges that JOC may not be a solution for all construction needs but suggests that by segmenting and matching projects with the appropriate solutions and partners, better outcomes can be achieved. The document highlights the importance of collaboration and mutual respect between owners and contractors for successful JOC implementation, as it is through this understanding that common goals can be established.
