Innovative Project Delivery
The Illinois Department of Transportation (the “Department” or “IDOT”) continually seeks innovative solutions to meet the growing transportation needs of Illinois. The Bureau of Innovative Project Delivery (“IPD Bureau”) was established in 2016 to identify, evaluate, and develop projects that may benefit from innovative approaches, including the use of various forms of project delivery allowable under law.
Vision: The IPD Program will enable the State of Illinois (the “State”) to be a national leader in the use of innovative project delivery and will facilitate partnerships with private industry and local communities to meet the transportation infrastructure needs of the State in an efficient, cost-effective manner.
Mission: The IPD Bureau will be the trusted advisor to the Department’s decision-makers on all matters related to innovative project delivery and the IPD Program and will assist the Department in delivering successful projects through innovative methods in order to provide the best value to the State.
