Project dates are divided into two groups: Informational Dates and Contract Site Times. A [[media:239 Project Timeline example 2020.docx|sample project timeline]] includes most of the project dates.

=108.16.1 Informational Dates=
Informational dates are defined by each agency using AWP (AASHTOWARE Project) and may be used for any purpose. MoDOT has decided to use these dates for tracking significant contract events and to facilitate the final plans process. 

The person(s) responsible for entering the Informational dates and their definitions follow: 

:'''1. Letting Date (LETD)''' - The date on which bids for the project are accepted and opened publicly by MoDOT. Date passes through AWP during the transition from Preconstruction to Construction modules.
:'''2.	Award Date (AWRD-DT)''' - The date of action of the Commission accepting the bid of the lowest responsible bidder for the work, subject to the execution and approval of a satisfactory contract therefore and bond to secure the performance thereof, and to such other conditions as may be specified or as required by law. The date passes into AWP during contract transition from Preconstruction to Construction modules.
:'''3.	Execution Date (EXEC)''' - The date that the contract has been signed by all parties and approved by the Chief Counsel's Office. The contractor has 15 days from award to return an executed contract for execution by the commission. The execution date can be more or less than 15 days after award based on the time the contractor takes to return the contract and the time for review and execution by the commission. The date for this record is entered at time of contract activation by CM-Division.
:'''4. Notice to Proceed Date (NTP)''' - The date on or before which prosecution of the work is to begin. This date is specified in the contract and is generally about 60 days after letting. If the contractor does not begin work by this date, the count of working days begins on this date. If the contractor starts before this date, the count of working days begins when the contractor starts work. Date is entered into AWP during contract activation from CM-Division.
:'''5.	Work Begin Date (WKBG-DT)''' - This is the date the contractor begins work and is used by AWP as the start date for the count of contract time.  This date is entered by the Project Office.
:'''6.	Open to Traffic Date (OPTF)''' - Leave this field blank except for special program projects that are designated by the Division to have the “opening” date documented.  When required, this date serves as a measure of progress towards completion of the special program.  ''Smooth Road Initiative'' and ''Focus on Bridges'' are examples of past programs that required tracking of the Open to Traffic date.  The Division will let the REs know what programs require tracking and what parameters constitute the project as being “Open to Traffic”.
:'''7. Date of Final Inspection''' - See Sec 105.10.7 and [[:Category:105 Control of Work#105.15.1.4 Acceptance for Maintenance (Final Inspection)|EPG 105.15.1.4 Acceptance for Maintenance (Final Inspection)]] for detail on the Final Inspection. This is the date of the Final Inspection, which is when all corrections and [[:Category:105 Control of Work#105.15.1.2 Exceptions|exceptions]] are complete on the last remaining project to be finally inspected in the contract. This date will be pulled from AWP by Cognos and listed on the Final Acceptance form. (See QRG [http://epg.modot.mo.gov/forms/CM/AWP_CO_Contract_Times.doc AWP CO Contract Times]).

=108.16.2 Contract Site Times=
Contract Site Times are records of the overall contract time-related information specific to contract. There are three types of contract site time records: Available Time, Calendar Time and Completion Date. These records are used for both the Overall Contract Time and for Milestones associated with the contracts.  For more detail on administration of Contract Time, reference the following QRGs:  [https://epg.modot.org/forms/CM/AWP_CO_Contract_Times.doc AWP CO Contract Times] and [https://epg.modot.org/forms/CM/AWP_CO_3ChangeOrderTimeExtension.doc Change Order Time Extension].
