Missouri Department of Transportation
An Electronic Workflow for Plan and Engineering data distribution
Jefferson City, Missouri, United States
The Missouri Department of Transportation (MoDOT) web-based bid letting
system contains information about open and closed state highway lettings.
The primary clients of the system are contractors interested in bidding on one
or more upcoming projects. The previous bid letting process was slow and labor
intensive because bids were all manually submitted by the contractors and
manually entered into the system by MoDOT staff.
MoDOT’s new Project Wise-based system has enabled a fully electronic
workflow; enhanced the timeliness and accuracy of bid letting information
available on the web; increased the productivity of the MoDOT staff; eliminated
contractor delivery service and travel expenses associated with manual bid
submissions; and reduced clerical labor and errors associated with manual
data entry.
