Contracts Posting to TxDOT Internet

TxDOT must post to its internet website each contract with a private vendor that TxDOT enters into for the purchase of goods or services. The Office of Record for the contract documents is responsible for ensuring the contract is posted. TxDOT must keep the contract posted until it expires or is terminated. This posting requirement does not apply to contracts for which there is no cost.
Each posting must include:
  • if not competitively bid, authority under which the contract is entered into without competitive bidding, or
  • if competitively bid, the request for proposal.
The Office of Record must redact from the contract to be posted:
  • information that is confidential under law, including information that relates to computer network security,
  • information excepted from public disclosure by the attorney general, and
  • social security numbers.
