10.3 Electronic Deliverable Submittal Process

  • This section is intended to provide an overview of the Survey Submittal Process. See Figure 10.3.1 for an overview of the Submittal Workflow.


Figure 10.3.1 ProjectWise Submittal Workflow for Design Survey Deliverables.


  • To gain access to ProjectWise each consultant will be required to create an account by contacting the MDOT ProjectWise Consultant Resource at MDOT-ProjectWiseConsultant@michigan.gov.
  • After an account is created a folder with the consultant company name as the title will be added in the Survey Consultant Deliverables folder in ProjectWise.
  • The consultant will then have access to this folder to upload the required project files. Below is a detailed outline of the submittal process:


  1. The Project Manager(PM) will copy the standard survey folder (XXXXXX_Survey_20YY-MM-DD) and place it in the consultant's folder when the project is awarded. The PM will also add any additional folders to the standard folder depending on the scope of work.
  2. The PM will also place a blank Survey Notes Receipt and Transmittal form in the folder and change the state to next to initiate the process. This will initiate an email that will be sent to the Consultant.
