eCORTS Help

Need to fill out a request/Need a USER ID?

If you have used eCORTS before and have a USER ID and password already, you may log in to eCORTS. If you have never used the eCORTS System before, you must first request a USER ID for eCORTS. The link to do this is located on the log in screen for eCORTS. After you submit the request for a USER ID, an email response from Capital Outlay with your USER ID and first time log in instructions will be sent to you within three working days. Please do not call or email Capital Outlay for a status on your USER ID. If you are locked out of eCORTS, please email CapitalOutlay@la.gov to have your USER ID unlocked.

Already Have a USER ID?

If you already have a USER ID, it will stay active each year. If you are submitting capital outlay requests on behalf of an entity, you must fax a letter of permission each fiscal year. Your USER ID will only be active for that fiscal year. If you forget your password and/or USER ID, go to the log in screen for eCORTS and a Password/USER ID Reminder is available. You will be prompted to submit your email address and your USER ID and password will automatically be emailed to you. If you have questions about an existing USER ID, please email CapitalOutlay@la.gov.

Request Not Printing

You must have Adobe Acrobat on your computer to be able to print the request you have entered. A free download is available on the Adobe Acrobat website. You can link to this site from the eCORTS Home Page www.doa.la.gov/ecorts.

Pages Not Saving

Make sure you are using Internet Explorer 6.0 or a later version for your browser. A free download is available on the Microsoft website. You can link to this site from the eCORTS Home Page www.doa.la.gov/ecorts.

Do Not Mail Paper Copies of the Capital Outlay Request

You will not submit paper copies of your capital outlay requests. They will be submitted electronically.

If you are a state entity, you may email Departmental Summary Sheets to CapitalOutlay@la.gov.

If you are a non-state entity (ports, parishes, municipalities, non-profit organizations), you will still need to mail a Letter of Support from a legislator who represents the area the project is located. Please mail a copy of the Letter of Support to each of the five offices listed:
