NOTICE: KYTC Website Guidance & Questionnaire To prevent the public from purchasing abandoned URL's and then using them for non KYTC interests we are launching this communication. Effective immediately, all new webpages that house KYTC information must use a ky.gov domain (with the exception of arcGIS.com sites or .edu sites). This applies to websites created by KYTC staff or contracted third-party vendors. This policy includes new website URL requests and alternative (vanity) URL requests for existing sites that currently end in .com or.org. If you have a need to create a new URL or website (this does not include new pages on Transportation.ky.gov) please email Naitore.Djigbenou@ky.gov AND Allen.Blair@ky.gov. Please fill out this questionnaire to help us identify any existing (live) .com or .org URL's in use that are not listed on this sheet or if an alternate URL's that redirects to these identified sites exists. This is to ensure we identify all public facing URL's that house KYTC content (i.e. projects, studies, programs). Please complete the survey by 01/09/26. Thank you for your assistance and cooperation in this change.

NOTICE: 2024 Prequalification Criteria and Instructions Update The Kentucky Transportation Cabinet has posted revisions to the Prequalification Criteria and Instructions document, which serves as the basis for determining minimum eligibility of firms within each service category. Each firm that desires to retain prequalifications or become prequalified with the Cabinet in any new service area must submit a full prequalification application prior to response to advertisement. These prequalifications are to be submitted electronically via the Consultant Portal by clicking the Consultant Management widget. Hard copy prequalification submittals are no longer permitted. The website to visit to submit prequalifications is https://apps.transportation.ky.gov/professionalservices.
Each firm that desires to retain prequalifications must submit a full prequalification application in the Portal prior to the firm's annual renewal date. Although the Portal will send an automatic notification as a courtesy, it is the sole responsibility of the firm to initiate a renewal of its prequalification with the Cabinet. The request should include a Certification of Professional Liability Insurance, a Certificate of Workers Compensation, and an Employment Insurance policy. The firm must also upload to the Portal an annual affidavit of the Campaign Finance form, linked below. The firm must also comply with an Ethics Certification directly in the Portal which is not a form and does not require a document upload. These credentials shall be uploaded for review by Professional Services staff and retained for compliance. The firm may be removed from the Cabinet's listing of prequalified consultants if an application is not received within thirty (30) days of its annual renewal date.
Please review the various links below for further details and reference: The Division of Professional Services anticipates this document will remain until December 2025 when the next updates become available prior to the 2026 full renewal cycle. Please contact Ashley Caldwell via email with any prequalification submittal process inquiries at Ashley.Caldwell@ky.gov.
Note: These reference documents will also permanently be available under the Prequalification tab at the top of this website.
