2022 Safety Program Awards Application

ELIGIBILITY

To be considered for an award, applicants must meet the following eligibility requirements:

  • No serious and/or “knowing” IOSHA citation associated with a work-related fatality since January 1, 2019.
  • Must have one or more active jobsites available for visit during June through September 2022.

  • Award recipients must work with ICI’s Safety Committee to participate in a safety roundtable gathering in early 2023.

COMPLETING THE APPLICATION

The ICI application process consists of:

  • Interactive application form which is filled in and submitted electronically once you have completed all of the requested information. Each section of the application clearly states what is required for that section.
  • The application form will also request some independent documentation. These documents must be submitted as PDF files and included as attachments when you submit your application.
  • SurveyMonkey will save your data in your browser until you click done at the end of the survey. After you click done, you won’t be able to edit the application. It’s best to collect all your information and complete the application in one sitting.

DEADLINE

Applications are submitted electronically and must be received by Aug. 12, 2022. All applications, at a minimum, must include OSHA 300A logs for 2019, 2020 and 2021, EMR data for 2019, 2020 and 2021 and a copy of the company safety program to be considered complete. Unanswered questions will be considered as “not applicable” responses.

CONFIDENTIALITY

To ensure fairness in the judging process, ICI will remove all identifying information, such as company name and address, from the applications and supporting documentation before providing information to ICI’s Safety Program Awards Selection Committee.

Please contact Jim Wood at (317) 634-7547 if you have questions or issues submitting the application data.

Prequal Included in License Extension

Source: Christopher B. Serak, Prequalification Director, Indiana Department of Transportation, (317) 234-2115

Due to restrictions related to the COVID-19 pandemic, the Prequalification Division will be as flexible as possible to allow contractors to continue to submit Statements of Experience and Financial Condition while such measures are in place. This includes accepting electronic signatures.

Certificates of Qualification are also included in the Governor’s 60-day extension of state licenses, announced earlier this week. If you need such an extension, please send a written request to the Prequalification Division. Such requests should be emailed as an attachment to the following recipients: Aggie Wagoner, Jose Murillo, and Chris Serak. Even if you are unable to make a request in writing due to COVID-19, we will not allow your certificate to expire.

Please note that the Prequalification Division is still accepting applications and processing them as normal while virus-related measures are in affect. The Prequalification Division encourages those firms that are able to complete their Statements before their current expiration to do so, rather than relying on the 60-day extension.

The process for completing and submitting the Contractor’s Statement of Experience and Financial Condition will be the same this busy season as it was in 2019. The Prequalification Division asks that you compile your submission into a single PDF if practicable. INDOT has eliminated the requirement that you submit your safety manual with your Statement.
