Determining Outsourcing Feasibility and Standard Pricing Methodologies
http://www.oregon.gov/ODOT/TD/TP_RES/ActiveProjectsV.shtml#SPR_738
Record Type: DOT

According to mandates of Oregon House Bill 2867, effective January 2010, without reasonably based cost estimates and comparative cost analyses between the Oregon Department of Transportation's (ODOT’s )internal cost estimates and consultant cost estimates, ODOT is precluded from outsourcing design and construction project delivery. ODOT needs to develop a methodology for cost estimating and comparative cost analyses between ODOT internal cost estimates and consultant cost estimates that is accurate and transparent, in order that outsourcing may continue as an essential element in ODOT’s delivery of projects.
