Notice Details

The work under this contract is for General Construction under a series of small to medium size construction projects at various Bureau of Wastewater Treatment (BWT) facilities within the South Region (Newtown Creek, North River, Oakwood Beach, Port Richmond, Red Hook Wastewater Treatment Plant areas). In addition to large capital construction projects, BWT has an ongoing need to accomplish smaller, straight forward construction projects at its facilities. Without Job Order Contracts, for each such project, the BWT must prepare complete contract documents and execute the required steps through the competitive bid process. Procuring the construction through this traditional design-bid-build process takes considerable time. Many of the projects are essential to maintain the operation of BWT facilities. The considerable time it takes to get contracts in place can jeopardize the continuation of service and, in some cases, permit the problem to worsen and result in additional costs. This Job Order Contract allows BWT to accomplish the much-needed projects in a fraction of the time while paying competitive prices for the work.
