FAQs
How do I get access?
Each AWP account is associated with a particular person, and it will be your responsibility to keep your username and password safe. Your account is what you will use to electronically sign the payrolls that you submit.
To request access to AWP, download and fill out a copy of the User Request Form, then submit it to DOT.AWP-Support@ct.gov. If signing privileges are to be granted, please be sure to include proof of authorization from a company officer.
I'm logged into AWP. Why can't I see my contract(s)?
You must request Contract Authority for every contract for which you want to submit payroll. Include your username, your company's name, and the DOT Contract ID for which you need Contract Authority. If you are a subcontractor, you can send this request to the Prime Contractor and they will forward it to the DOT Contract Staff. Once the DOT project staff grants you Contract Authority, you will be able to see the contract when you click show first 10 under the Vendor Payroll collapsible menu on the AWP dashboard.
I forgot my AASHTOWare password.
Email DOT.AWP-Support@ct.gov with your username and request that your password be reset.
