This event, prepared by Iowa DOT auditors and trainers and presented by Wes Musgrove, Director of Construction and Materials Bureau, is a great way for DBE companies to get the "inside scoop" direct from the source!
Participants will learn how to confidently pursue and successfully perform Iowa DOT projects. They will be given a holistic approach to what the DOT considers a successful contractor. This includes the process for bids, administration requirements, subcontracts/contracts, communication, and basic expectations on projects from the Contracts & Specifications Bureau within the Iowa DOT.
