Electronic Contracting
As part of The Florida Department of Transportation’s paperless initiative, FDOT implemented the use of electronic signature technology for contracting beginning in August 2016. Procurement contracts and amendments are executed by the Department and external signers (vendors/consultants/contractors) using an electronic signature web application. There is no cost to external signers. Please refer to the link for further detail and guidance on FDOT’s e-signature Web Application and additional training information on how to sign.

For questions, please contact the Procurement Office, at 850-414-4477.

Fraudulent Email Notifications
In support of the Agency’s paperless initiative, FDOT began use of an electronic signature application in August 2016, for purposes of executing contract documents. While new technology offers opportunities for process improvements, it may inevitably also present opportunities for phishing scams. Click here for information on what to do when you receive notifications to electronically sign a contract document from FDOT, to avoid becoming the victim of a phishing scam.
