Abstract:

This synthesis report will be of interest to both administrators and researchers involved in the measurement of performance for research, development, and technology (RD&T) programs in state departments of transportation (DOTs), federal transportation and other agencies, the private sector, and academic organizations. It addresses the use of performance measures for evaluating the effectiveness and impact of transportation RD&T programs. The synthesis is based on a review of the literature, a questionnaire distributed to state DOTs (research programs, upper management, and operating units), and queries to select private sector and academic organizations. This report provides information on performance measures as they relate to RD&T programs. It addresses the general issue of measuring performance, and it details various activities carried out within state DOTs, federal and other agencies, the private sector, and academic organizations. It serves as a tightly focused companion document to National Cooperative Research Program (NCHRP) Synthesis 238, and is an outgrowth of the activity involved with NCHRP Synthesis 280.
