Construction Audit Tracking System

Find instructions on using our construction and inspection audit system that will be used by WSDOT for all design build projects and other construction, testing and inspection processes.

The Construction Audit Tracking System (CATS) provides a communications process that allows WSDOT and contractors to resolve non-compliance issues found during construction inspections. This system is a new need to WSDOT and does not replace any existing computer systems at the agency.

System instructions

Use these instructions to assist you with CATS:

Slow down – lives are on the line. 

In 2023, speeding continued to be a top reason for work zone crashes.

Even one life lost is too many.

Fatal work zone crashes doubled in 2023 - Washington had 10 fatal work zone crashes on state roads.

It's in EVERYONE’S best interest.

95% of people hurt in work zones are drivers, their passengers or passing pedestrians, not just our road crews.
