Work Performance Standards


Manuals and Procedures

Standards and Specifications

INDOT’s maintenance forces perform numerous work activities throughout the state, from pothole patching to signal repairs, by over 100 management units and over 1,000 employees. Consistent work methods and accurate reporting are essential to getting the job done, at the highest quality and lowest cost possible. The purpose of these work performance standards is to ensure that our maintenance work is done correctly and reported properly. Many of our activities have unit cost goals and quality assurance reviews. By following the work method, the resulting job should meet or exceed the cost and quality goals.
