Construction End Site VDOT - 360 - 2022 Plant Mix The Virginia Department of Transportation (VDOT) is firmly committed to the formation of a partnering relationship with the Contractor, all subcontractors, suppliers, FHWA representatives; where appropriate, other federal agencies, local government officials, utilities representatives, law enforcement and public safety officials, consultants, and other stakeholders to effectively and efficiently manage and complete each construction or maintenance contract to the mutual and individual benefits and goals of all parties. Partnering is an approach to fulfilling this commitment where all parties to the contract, as well as individuals and entities associated with or otherwise affected by the contract, willingly agree to dedicate themselves by working together as a team to fulfill and complete the construction or maintenance contract in cost effective ways while preserving the highest standards of safety and quality called for by the Contract combined with the goals of on time/on budget completion. The approach must still allow for the fact that the members of the team share many common interests yet have differing authorities, interests, and objectives that must be accommodated for the project to be viewed as successful by all parties. It is recognized by VDOT that partnering is a relationship in which:
Trust and open communications are encouraged and expected by all participants
All parties move quickly to address and resolve issues at the lowest possible level by approaching problems from the perspectives and needs of all involved.
All parties have identified common goals and at the same time respect each other's individual goals and values.
Partners create an atmosphere conducive to cooperation and teamwork in finding better solutions to potential problems and issues at hand.
