How to win design work with the Arizona DOT
Start at the Arizona Department of Transportation's website, azdot.gov. Confirm how the department advertises consultant work, receives statements of qualifications, and shares project information. The verified facts do not establish those procedures, so check the site before preparing a response. For federally funded architecture and engineering work, the Brooks Act requires qualifications-based selection. Lead with relevant staff, project experience, and your approach; do not base selection on price.
Federal-aid contracts may also have Disadvantaged Business Enterprise goals. Check each solicitation for its requirements and plan how your firm will meet them. The verified facts do not confirm Arizona DOT's current DBE procedures or goals, so confirm those on the department's website. The Arizona State Procurement Office has a separate site at spo.az.gov. Confirm there whether any state procurement information applies to the opportunity. Follow the specific solicitation's instructions.
