Instructions

Who is eligible to submit an innovation?

UDOT consultants, contractors, and employees are encouraged to submit innovations they have implemented at UDOT.

STEP 1: Verify that you are submitting an implemented innovation

Please submit implemented innovations, not ideas.

● An implemented innovation is something we have already done that solves a problem, resulting in value for UDOT, its stakeholders, and/or customers.

● Ideas are thoughts or suggestions about what is possible and should be submitted on the Ideas Portal (open to employees only).
