AASHTOWare Project Webinar Series

Upcoming Webinar: Ensuring Equitable Fund Distribution with AASHTOWare Project Civil Rights & Labor™
The passage of the Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act (IIJA) created billions of dollars in funding that will eventually flow through the DOTs for shovel-worthy work. As agencies manage these funds, it’s essential to ensure there is a system in place for compliance and equitable fund distribution. As an overarching module, AASHTOWare Project Civil Rights & Labor helps agencies remain compliant on projects with Disadvantaged Business Enterprises (DBEs) and Small Business Enterprises (SBEs).

On Tuesday, June 7, Infotech experts Tammy Mancinelli and Ian Baldwin will dive into key functionality in AASHTOWare Project Civil Rights & Labor for tracking, reporting, and analysis. We’ll also display a new sample dashboard that helps analyze data from a historical perspective to project triennial goals. It’s an info-packed webinar that you won’t want to miss out on!
