  1. What role did the Gordian Group play in the Cities handling of the JOC program? I heard the term “consultants”. Who was the consultant and what were the terms of their compensation? Was it a percentage of all JOC’s or a set fee? Am I to understand the ” Catalog” you referred to was a Gordian product? Sounds like the City needs an independent JOC expert to oversee the program. Especially if the “Consultants” are getting a percentage of all JOC projects. Because, if it is the case, that the consultant is getting a percentage, then would it not behoove them to allow over runs and purchasing outside the “Catalog”?

    1. Your analysis is correct. Any JOC Program should never involve a percentage fee for JOC “services” related to construction value. This is future a problem is the “JOC Consultant” is being paid a fee and has a role in developing, reviewing, or approving projects and associated costs.
