How to win design work with the Indiana DOT
Start with the Indiana Department of Transportation's website and the Indiana Department of Administration Procurement page. Confirm where INDOT posts consultant solicitations, how firms submit qualifications, and whether any prequalification is required.
For federally funded architecture and engineering work, expect qualifications-based selection under the Brooks Act. Build a clear record of your firm's relevant experience, staff qualifications, and project approach. Federal-aid contracts may include DBE goals. Confirm whether a goal applies and how INDOT handles DBE participation on each opportunity. Check the verified letting page for letting information, but confirm whether it applies to consultant work.
Owner checklist
- Bookmark the INDOT website and verify consultant requirements there.
- Check the Indiana Department of Administration Procurement page and confirm whether INDOT consultant opportunities appear there.
- Review the INDOT letting page and confirm whether its notices cover the design work you pursue.
- For each federal-aid opportunity, confirm its qualifications-based selection process and any DBE goal with INDOT.
