Washington Revised Code Title 39. Public Contracts and Indebtedness § 39.10.420. Job order procedure--Public bodies may authorize and use

(1) All public bodies of the state of Washington are authorized to award job order contracts and use the job order contracting procedure.

(3) Public bodies may use a job order contract for public works projects when a determination is made that the use of job order contracts will benefit the public by providing an effective means of reducing the total lead-time and cost for the construction of public works projects for repair and renovation required at public facilities through the use of unit price books and work orders by eliminating time-consuming, costly aspects of the traditional public works process, which require separate contracting actions for each small project.
