WHKS and Axiom Selected To Create a Complete Web-based Resource Center for Iowa DOT

Ames, Iowa, USA - 20 Dec 2005 -- Iowa Department of Transportation (Iowa DOT) recently awarded the project to develop a new Web-based resource called 'Project Automation Resource", to a project team made up of WHKS & Co. and Axiom.

The purpose of the two-year project is to create a centralized network for the highway design staff while staying consistent with their highway design practices. The Resource will be a comprehensive electronic guide, documenting and standardizing the function of automation tools and processes used to develop highway improvement projects for the Iowa DOT Office of Design.

WHKS has collaborated with Iowa DOT for 45 years and will be instrumental in supplying transportation design experience, as well as overseeing the project?s adherence to the Iowa DOT policies and procedures. Axiom, the world's most experienced developer of time-saving MicroStation software solutions, will deliver the software development and technical writing needed for the project.

"We have a great team of people for the project," stated Tony Zelinskas, Project Engineer for WHKS. "Together, we are confident that we can create a Project Automation Resource over the next two years that will serve the Iowa DOT for years to come."
