	Additionally, the specific characteristics of the proprietary product that is mentioned should be included in the job special provision. Construction personnel can use this information to determine if the substitute product is indeed “or equal”. Examples of specific characteristics are the reflective properties of pavement marking tape, width and length of crashworthy end treatments, signal controller units that are compatible with existing units in the field or other applications in which the district core team can specifically name product characteristics. When requested by a contractor to approve the use of a substitute product based upon the “or equal” provisions contained in the JSP, construction field personnel will coordinate their response to this request with the engineer of record.

	Alternate bidding procedures should be used when more than one design alternate is judged equal or better during the development of the project design. Alternate bidding is most effective when there is more than one method or material that can be considered in the construction of the project and the cost can only be determined by competitively bidding the two alternates. The potential for using alternates is normally determined through design studies and value engineering analysis during project development. Examples of common alternate bid items include: drainage items, bridge structures, sound walls and pavement details.The bidding documents and contract plans should clearly indicate the design criteria and the type of alternate designs or contractor options that will be acceptable. The contract must clearly define how alternates or options are to be bid.
