Book Description
In order to ensure top quality construction projects, contracts need to be awarded to the most qualified contractor. At the time of this research, NMDOT projects often went to the lowest, not necessarily the most qualified, bidder. The objective of this project was to survey the contractor prequalification practices of other states for use in NMDOT program development discussions. Respondents from 50 state transportation departments were surveyed for descriptions of their contractor prequalification practices. Eighteen states reported that they had contractor prequalification programs, 7 states reported they were developing programs, 24 states reported that they had no programs, and 1 state did not respond. Primary programmatic issues of interest to respondents were objectivity, efficiency, and adequacy of operational resources. Only a few states had formal methods for measuring program impact. Execution of Work - Prosecution and Progress, appeared to be the most important contractor performance-rating factor. A database was built to hold detailed survey responses, states prequalification documents, and various research resources.
