State DOT and Public Procurement Portals

This directory is for owners of civil engineering consulting firms who need to find state agency requirements and public work opportunities. Use it to check where your firm may need to register, qualify, or submit information before pursuing a project. Requirements and processes differ by agency, so confirm the details for the specific work you want to pursue.

Each state page brings together links to the state Department of Transportation (DOT), consultant prequalification information, consultant selection information, current lettings or solicitations, the Disadvantaged Business Enterprise (DBE) program, and the statewide procurement portal. It also includes an owner checklist to help you review the main steps and identify what to confirm with the agency.

Use the consultant prequalification guide to understand common qualification steps. For consultant selection, see the Brooks Act and qualifications-based selection guide. The SF 330 guide covers the federal qualifications form. If your firm is considering federally funded work, review the federal procurement resources as well.

We checked every link in this directory. Do that before relying on a qualification, selection procedure, solicitation, DBE requirement, or portal listing.

Start with the state page for the agency or project you are pursuing. Then use the checklist to note what your firm must submit, where it must submit it, and which points need direct confirmation. Keep the agency's instructions as the final reference for your next step.
