Contractor Performance Evaluation (CPE) and 1165 Form for Non-Compliance Transition
MDOT is implementing a shift away from Contractor Performance Evaluations (CPE), instead engineers may use the 1165 form for issues with contract non-compliance when dialogue with the Contractor has failed to produce an acceptable result. This transition will take place over several years, with MDOT Trunkline projects being the first projects to stop performing Contractor Performance Evaluations. As a result of this, MDOT will maintain both processes below: Contractor Performance Evaluations for Local Agency projects, and Non-Compliance for MDOT Trunkline projects.
Issuance of non-compliance in lieu of Contractor Performance Evaluation will begin for all MDOT Trunkline projects with final completion dates on or after June 5, 2024.
Guidance for the submittal of CPE’s and Non-Compliance Documents can be found here:

Contract Performance Evaluation Review Team looks for patterns and trends of non-compliance. This group will evaluate Contractor non-compliance/performance and may refer issues to the MDOT Prequalification Committee in the event of serious or recurrent violations.
