Project Bundling "How to" Peer Exchange

Oct. 18th and 19th, 2022

Polson, Montana

Limited travel funds are available and can be requested through the registration link.

The purpose of this peer exchange is to encourage tribes and local public agencies (LPAs) to take advantage of efficiencies created by project bundling. With the passage of the Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act (IIJA)*, project bundling becomes even more relevant and important. The law specifically mentions project bundling and bridge bundling as alternative contracting methods for enhanced program delivery and encourages agencies to establish clear procedures for these methods so the known benefits might be more consistently realized.

The Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) would like to help tribes and LPAs make bundling a routine process for saving time, money, and resources, especially as additional funds from the IIJA are rolled out.

If you are part of a tribe or LPA and work in planning/programming, design, construction, or asset management, don’t miss this worthwhile event! Register today. The event is scheduled from 8:30 am to 5:00 pm Tuesday, Oct. 18, and 8:30 am to 12:30 pm Wednesday, Oct. 19.

*Also known as the Bipartisan Infrastructure Law.
