Case Study: City’s Bureau of Environmental Services achieves a long-awaited viewing platform project with Gordian Job Order Contracting

City’s Bureau of Environmental Services completes a long-awaited viewing platform in under four months with Gordian

The city's Bureau of Environmental Services had a vision to build a viewing platform along a wildlife refuge trail but was unable to procure the project through traditional bidding for several years due to its complex scope and wetland location. They engaged Gordian and its Job Order Contracting (JOC) solution to overcome this challenge.

Gordian's solution facilitated a high level of construction collaboration by bringing all parties together in a Joint Scope Meeting. This allowed the team to quickly agree on a Detailed Scope of Work and a price. The project was completed in under four months, resulting in the long-awaited observation platform being built while keeping the trail open throughout construction.
