Outline Learning objectives –why work
plan? Top five reasons why a work plan is
important What are the recent updates?
Target date, signing first or second page, emergency contact, pre-construction & post construction activity, etc.
Work plan development (Process): preparation, review, revision & approval.
Practical exercise
Why is a work plan Important?1. Because it is the law!
he 105 IAC 13-3-3 (b) (1): A work plan shall be
submitted whether or not any facility relocations are required.
It is not a matter of opinion or an option, it is the LAW.
Utilities are obligated to submit their work plans to accommodate a highway improvement project.
Why is a work plan Important ?2. Because it focuses on deliverables: Target out of conflict date. Pre-construction schedule. Construction schedule. Relocation drawing. Cost estimate Proof of property interest.
Why is a work plan Important?3. Because it is a signed
commitment/contract
A work plan is a signed commitment by a utility to accurately relocate its facilities on schedule.
Projects are let based on information obtained from utility work plans.
A utility may be held accountable, for utility related delay claims.
Why is a work plan Important4. No Surprises during construction:
Work plan is a major tool to avoid surprises during construction.
The utility team shall demonstrate due diligence in reviewing & approving work plans.
Last chance before construction stage!
Why is a work plan Important?5: Because we use the work plan as an
input:
Utility risk management report.
Gantt chart.
Utility special provision.
Utility coordination certificate.
A tool for resolution of scheduling and location conflicts
Preamble 105 IAC-13-2-19: Work plan is defined as a
plan of the utility to carry out facility relocation to accommodate an improvement project.
Use preliminary final project plan (Stage 3/90%).
Prepare and send letter Request Work Plan.
Use the most recent work plan template. Go to the INDOT website.
When is a work plan due? Sixty (60) days for a minor project; and
One hundred twenty (120) days for a major project.
An additional thirty (30) days will be allowed to furnish the work plan if coordination is required with another utility or utilities.
If a work plan is not received on time: contact the authorized representative and notify the oversight agent.

Work plan revision Non compatible work plans shall be returned
to the utility immediately.
The utility shall submit a revised work plan within 30 days.
If the revised work plan is not compatible, the UC will prepare an alternate work plan.
The utility shall accept/make changes to the alternate plan within 30 days.

Work Plan Approval Letter Relocation permit to occupy public
right-of-way. Notice to proceed with
preconstruction activities. In rare cases a notice to proceed with
construction activities.
23
Work plan addendums: Addendums can either be INDOT initiated or
utility initiated. A utility shall submit a revised work plan
with a new cost estimate (if reimbursable). The utility coordinator shall review the
addendum; and send it to the approval of the oversight agent.
If an addendum is issued during construction, a copy shall be sent to the construction engineer.
24
Work Plan Addendum Letter What is the change of work. What is the cost. Who is paying for it. What is the impact on construction
schedule. Revise exhibits to executed
agreements, if reimbursable.
25
Notice to Proceed Does the work of the utility depend on
the schedule(s) of other utilities? Are all the parcels needed by the
utility acquired, ROE obtained? Is the right-of-way cleared from trees
& other obstructions, staked? Does the work of the utility depend on
the INDOT contractor?
