Due to recent updates to the Form FHWA-1273, “Required Contract Provisions Federal-Aid Construction Contracts (FHWA-1273)” by the Federal Highway Administration, all contractors working on Federal-aid highway construction projects must take steps to ensure continued compliance with federal regulations.
What must highway heavy contractors do to ensure compliance?
- Physically incorporate the revised FHWA-1273 into all subcontract and lower-tier subcontract templates.
- Physically incorporate the revised FHWA Form-1273 into any subcontracts or lower-tier subcontracts tied to Federal-aid construction contracts awarded by MnDOT or a local public agency post-October 23, 2023.
- Note: This requirement to use the revised FHWA-1273 does not apply
to pre-existing contracts.
- Review and inform staff about the FHWA-1273 revisions.
A copy of the revised FHWA-1273, as well as a section-by-section breakdown of these revisions, is available here: https://www.fhwa.dot.gov/construction/cqit/form1273.cfm.
For more information about the changes, please contact a member of MnDOT’s Office of Construction and Innovative Contracting, Labor Compliance Unit or Contracts and Lettings Unit.
