AASHTOWare Project Construction & Materials

For more than 20 years, TxDOT has been using SiteManager and LIMS for construction and materials information management. Although SiteManager is a powerful tool, AASHTOWare, the same organization that created SiteManager, has developed a more extensive and robust system.

The Construction Division (CST) is very excited to implement a new construction and materials information management system called AASHTOWare Project Construction and Materials™ or APCM.

• This change is necessary because the current SiteManager system will not be supported in the future. The transition from SiteManager to APCM ensures TxDOT is up to date with the latest software.
• APCM is web-based, so you can enter information and read reports anywhere you have Internet access.
• APCM will provide valuable insights and a deeper, more integrated collaboration between TxDOT’s districts and divisions. Multiple systems can be accessed in the same environment to minimize transferring information between different AASHTOWare modules (such as Civil Rights and Labor, Project Preconstruction and Vendor Management).
• With APCM, TxDOT can continue to collaborate with other organizations and Departments of Transportation.
• LIMS will be replaced with APCM so information will be stored in one easy to find location.

• APCM will replace SiteManager, however SiteManager will continue to be used and available for current projects until completed.
• No projects will be switched over from SiteManager to APCM.
• APCM will be used for all new projects once APCM has been rolled out to a district.

LIMS will be rolled out during District Group 1 phase of the APCM roll out.

• Prior to APCM roll out, all standalone LIMS activities for samples and tests move into APCM, including activity related to ongoing SiteManager projects.

• All project level testing information for current projects will be entered into SiteManager and LIMS will be discontinued.
• There should not be a visible change in the information you see in SiteManager or how you work with SiteManager.

• All multi-project information will be available in both SiteManager and APCM.
• After roll out, information for all new projects will be entered into APCM.

Training will be offered through in-person classes, virtual meetings, training materials and demonstration videos. Training resources will also be posted to this website.

• Training materials will be available here, before rollout.
• Live Training classes will be scheduled by District groups.
