From procurement contracts, to employee agreements, to roadway construction projects, department of transportation (DOT) paperwork can be complex in the best of times. Roadway construction projects alone can generate thousands of pages of documentation and drawings that require review and signoff by multiple engineers and contractors with digital seals and certifications. The need for contactless document processing during COVID has only complicated things more. A transition to modern, digital processes has never been more necessary. Fortunately, electronic signature and digital document technology can help state DOTs overcome these challenges. These solutions make it fast and simple to sign, share, store and retrieve critical paperwork – streamlining everything from roadway construction planning to internal approvals on new policies.

On March 4th at 10am PT/1pm ET, Government Technology is bringing together a panel of public and private sector leaders to discuss how going digital can help DOTs create more efficient processes while preserving taxpayer dollars. Register now to:

  • Hear the firsthand experiences of DOT leaders in how electronic signature and digital document technology benefited their departments
  • Learn the various ways these technologies can reduce paper and storage costs
  • Discover first steps and best practices for transitioning to a more digital project process
