The Office of Contracts is
responsible for three major functions of the Iowa DOT:
1. Estimating and Contract letting
2. Bid Review, Monitoring, and Collusion Detection
3. External Civil Rights Compliance
The Office of Contracts is at the focal point where all of the pre-letting
activities converge so contracting can take place for construction.

Visit the Iowa DOT’s Recovery Web site by clicking on the national Recovery symbol and learn more about the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009 (ARRA). The ARRA was signed into law by President Obama Feb. 17, 2009. It is an unprecedented effort to jumpstart our economy, create or save millions of jobs, and put a down payment on addressing long-neglected challenges so our country can thrive in the 21st century. Funding made available through the Recovery Act will assist Iowa in strengthening its transportation systems, including Iowa’s rail, transit, aviation, highways, waterways, and other modes of surface transportation.
