Case Study: Tarrant County College Opens New Campus Quickly with Gordian Job Order Contracting

Tarrant County College Opens New Location with Job Order Contracting

Tarrant County College, working through its TCC Connect campus, needed to turn a vacant retail building into a physical campus location to meet accreditation requirements and be ready for fall classes. The renovation had to move quickly, but the initial traditional bid came in over budget, creating a tight schedule and budget challenge.

Gordian provided Job Order Contracting (JOC), helping Tarrant County College use fixed line-item pricing, vetted contractors, and a faster procurement process. Gordian’s approach enabled work to start quickly with Chambers Engineering and helped deliver the renovated campus in a single summer, including major interior and exterior improvements, so TCC Connect could open on time with a new home for students, faculty, and administrators.
