MDOT Implements New Claims Procedures

The Michigan Infrastructure & Transportation Association (MITA) reports in their current newsletter that the Michigan Department of Transportation (MDOT) has updated its claims procedures.

"On January 30th, after almost two years of collaboration and work by the Department and MITA, MDOT leadership signed into policy their new procedure for review of contractor claims. This new procedure, formally issued as Bureau of Highway Instructional Memorandum 2008-02, Review of Contractor Claims, replaces an outdated and organizationally archaic process defined in MDOT documents dating back to the mid 90’s."
