Gordian’s Job Order Contracting Awards
Gordian’s annual Job Order Contracting Awards honor the organizations and the contractors who work together to build better communities with JOC. Winning projects demonstrate community impact, exemplify JOC best practices, and highlight collaboration between project stakeholders and innovative uses of Gordian’s Construction Procurement Solutions.
The JOC Awards are a tremendous opportunity for the unsung heroes of community improvement to gain recognition for their great work. Honorees are recognized in various communications, including press releases, newsletters and industry-related social media sites.
Eligible Projects
Nominees must have used a Gordian Job Order Contracting solution to complete a construction project in 2025. Projects completed with either a tailored Job Order Contract or a shared one (as in, those accessed via a purchasing cooperative) are eligible. Project owners, JOC contractors or Gordian employees may submit nominations. To be considered, include at least three photos of the project. You may nominate multiple projects for consideration.
What We’re Looking For
While we welcome all nominations that meet the eligibility criteria, we do have a few things we look for to determine a winner. A top-line consideration is how the project benefits end-users, the community (including taxpayers) and contractors. Basically, the outcome should be good for everybody. Overcoming extraordinary circumstances or complex problems always gets the judges’ attention, as well as how JOC saved project stakeholders time and/or money, so be sure to highlight those aspects of the project in your submission.
Demonstrate your biggest successes, your commitment to community improvement and the value of Job Order Contracting. Enter your 2025 projects today.
