Documentation of Contract Quantities

Why do I need documentation certification?

Documentation of Contract Quantities is administered by Illinois Center for Transportation offering documentation certification (IDOT class S-14).

The course is a prerequisite for all IDOT consultants who will perform construction inspection (Phase III) work, including staking, material testing, inspection, documentation of materials and quantities, record keeping, enforcing specifications and much more. Check out a complete list of requirements for consultant prequalification.

 

 

The course helps registrants learn how to:
  • Properly document contract quantities in compliance with state and federal standards
  • Make project diary entries
  • Quantify book preparation
  • Use the cross-reference system 
  • Create extra work reports, measurement and calculation of pay items for pay quantities occurring in road and bridge plans.

Format

Register for exam eligibility and schedule to take the exam at a testing site or online during the exam period. Observation and review of the course materials and video modules may be completed at any time on a self-paced basis by visiting the ICT's Course Materials page.

Professional Development Hours

Those that pass the exam earn 14 professional development hours. Earned PDHs appear on the certificate provided with a passing score.

No PDHs are awarded to those who do not earn a passing exam score. Those who fail the exam will need to register and pay for another online exam and earn a passing score before being awarded PDHs.
