Public Agency Advocacy

 

Public agencies (including ODOT) - along with the associated red-tape - represent the majority of highway/heavy work in Ohio. OCA advocates for member firms as a voice and link to public agencies throughout the state. Thanks to collaborative relationships forged over decades, OCA, on behalf of its members, and ODOT partner in policy and program development, and foster issue resolution. Because partnering is fundamental to OCA's mission, the association commits significant resources to supportive activities that directly benefit members, like:

 

Negotiate Statewide Issues

Steel Price Adjustment
Fuel Price Adjustment
Dispute Resolution Advice & Assistance
Proposed Specification Revisions
Bridge Partnership Program
Ohio Turnpike Financing

Serve on ODOT Spec Committees


100 Section (Contract Administration):
