Title: MANAGING CHANGE IN STATE DEPARTMENTS OF TRANSPORTATION. SCAN 2 OF 8: INNOVATIONS IN PRIVATE INVOLVEMENT IN PROJECT DELIVERY
Accession Number: 00923383
Record Type: Monograph
Abstract: Outsourcing--commonly employed for construction and design services to cope with lumpy demands or staff downsizing--is spreading to other functions within the project and service delivery functions. It is increasingly important to understand the relative costs and quality of work conducted in-house versus by external private firms. Current evidence is not conclusive, as cost comparisons may not have been systematic. More research and more collaborative efforts are required by transportation organizations to identify best practices and possible standard procedures.
