  • Part 1 Construction Documentation Training Manual Part one of the manual covers general information about the Documentation program an is a general overview of the class by the same name.
  • Part 2, Precontract/Preconstruction Activities This section describes the bid proposal package, shows a sample project advertisement, and outlines the process for award and execution of a construction contract.
  • Part 3, EEO, DBE, Training and Reporting This portion of the manual is an overview of the three different programs developed to insure fair employment and contracting practices. Reporting requirements for each program are discussed and examples of the forms used are included.
  • Part 4 Preconstruction In this section sample Preconstruction Conference agenda and minutes are discussed. The Commitment File and what should be included in it as well as what paperwork an agency should expect (and sometimes demand) to see before the work begins.
  • Part 5 Construction Activities This part of the manual covers construction activities starting with filing systems, and continuing on with the Inspectors Daily Report, Working Days, Wage issues, Change Orders, Project Payments and Traffic Control.
  • Part 6 Post Construction The closing activities for federal aid projects are discussed in this section of the manual. Along with Chapter 53 of the LAG Manual users learn what documents and activities need to be completed and on file to finalize a project.
  • Part 7 Project Management Review Project management reviews are performed through WSDOT's Highways and Local Programs office once every three years for all agencies that have Certification Acceptance status in Washington state. This section of the manual talks about the review process and the items reviewers will check.
  • At A Glance A package of information to make project documentation a bit simpler. This piece of the handout is in separate parts for quick reference. Some items contained in this section are: Before Work Begins, Important Websites, 10 Best Ways to Stay Out of Trouble, etc. that have been collected in one place for convenience.
  • Materials At A Glance A collection of tips and information to deal with materials issues without having to dig through all the references.
