Knowing About A Job Order Contract


by Henry Hall


The world used to be empty. There is no denying that. There was plenty of life around, life did in fact abound, but all of it was under the sea. Until one fish line creature evolved with legs and then it shuffled on to some ancient beach out of the primordial waters. A beach that may not even exist anymore thanks to primordial drift. But there it was. In what could accurately be described as a brand new world, at least relatively speaking. There it was, feeling everything for the first time in the history of the planet. Before that, nothing had ever felt the heat of the sun without the filter of water. Nothing had ever experienced the breeze. That singular act set in motion a chain of events. It was unlikely that the primitive brain house inside that creature could fully understand just how important it was to the destiny of the planet. But had it not had the courage to leave its literal comfort zone, terrestrial life would have evolved very differently, if at all. It is a possibility that humans would have never evolved. Which means no cities, no houses, no shopping malls. But humans did evolve, so they can create all that and other things with a job order contract.

A JOC is a kind of contract. Like any contract, it is an agreement between more than one party. Now, a JOC generally covers the area of construction.

They are employed because they streamline the process. They also help keep total costs down. All in all, they can help owners work with contractors better.

A contractor is someone who builds things. Now, they can range in specialty. Some can only do renovations. Others, however, are companies that can undertake full scale construction projects, which means that they can straight up build things.

Contractors are needed for one reason. Society has a division of labor. One person heals, another stops crime, another commits crime, and so on and so forth. As such, not everyone will have the skills needed to get a construction project done.

Mankind likes to record its information. The evidence for that can be seen in cave paintings. Well, the internet is the single greatest repository of information that mankind has ever put together. It has every scrap of knowledge stored in it, everything from how man first learned to control fire to templates for a JOC, so it can be an invaluable resource when looking for such a template.

A JOC has a lot to cover. One of the many things it does is the long term relationship between an owner and a contractor. Some of them will have a provision that the contractor be on call just in case any new construction needs pop up.

Now, human beings are social animals. This means that they build relationships with one another. A JOC can help to facilitate the working relationship between two parties, so that everyone is able to make a profit.

The thing about the world was that it was not supposed to be easy to live in. In fact, it was supposed to be hard. But humanity was stubborn enough to make it easy.
