Vendors who are approved by WisDOT to be eligible bidders or plan holders and who want to remain confidential, will not appear on the lists of eligible bidders or plan holders on the HCCI website or Bid Express^tm. It is the responsibility of the vendor to ensure that they have been approved as an eligible bidder before submitting a bid.

Vendors who choose to be confidential are still contractually obligated, as all eligible bidders are, that by submission of the bid, the bidder contractually commits to all applicable laws, regulations and procedures, including any coordination with subcontractors and DBE community.

​Missed Test Memo, effective beginning with May 13, 2025 letting

• ​Missed Tests Memo (May 6, 2025)
  
• WisDOT, in consultation with FHWA WI-Division developed the “MISSED TEST MEMO."  The basis for the memo is a refocused emphasis on prevention of missed tests.  If no Quality Verification (QV) testing is conducted in a lot, contractor Quality Control (QC) sampling and testing cannot be used for acceptance [23 CFR 637.207 (a)(1)(i)(A) and (a)(1)(ii)(B)].  Guidance within the memo was developed using existing WisDOT Standard Specification language.  The MISSED TEST MEMO includes the addition of a semi-formalized Material Placement Notification (MPN) to address the “missed test" finding from the FHWA Concrete Quality Assurance Assessment. 
• The MISSED TEST MEMO is effective with the May 13, 2025 bid letting; however, please be advised that WisDOT Standard Specification 106.1.1 and 106.1.2 already require the contractor to provide notification of material sources and required engineer approval PRIOR to incorporating materials into the work.  These requirements remain unchanged with the memo.​
