... 95 Implementation and Deployment While the beginning of project implementation may occur once planning is underway, this chapter defines implementation and deployment as beginning once the project plan and environmental document are approved. Implementing a managed lane project requires a rigorous dialogue between staff involved in design, operations, and construction.
From page 96...
... 96 has encouraged the concept of configuration management for the design review process. According to the Electronics Industries Alliance/American National Standards Institute's publication on configuration management as a national standard, "Configuration management, applied over the life cycle of a system, provides visibility and control of its performance, functional, and physical attributes.
From page 97...
... 97 dependencies should be known at the beginning of the project, such that slippages in one schedule automatically propagate to all dependent subsystems. Installation Prior to the start of field installation, a detailed installation plan is required.
From page 98...
... 98 Typical stages of testing are as follows: • Test plan: Plan that identifies test modules, functionality, scheduling, durations, equipment, facilities, software bug and deficiency resolution, and staff required for each stage of testing. Scheduling of each test stage should also be reflected in the project schedule.
From page 99...
... 99 Development The development process for toll collection systems is similar to the development of other large transportation systems. System engineering processes are used to guide the development from concept of operations, through design, installation, and testing, to final deployment (Figure 88)
From page 100...
... 100 If the system is replacing an existing toll collection system, migrating data and transitioning to the new system need to be included in the deployment plan. Most toll collection systems use the deployment phase as an opportunity to have the system up and running for an extended period of time before going into revenue operations.
From page 101...
... 101 under a design–bid–build structure, design–build structure, or other delivery functions. Similarly, system integration and tolling operations and maintenance can also be combined into the civil delivery contract, resembling a P3 approach.

... 102 of work. As a result, the agency assumes the risks of errors or omissions within the final design documentation (105)
From page 103...
... 103 In the second phase, the sales phase, marketing of the managed lanes addresses how to be a customer of the facility. Marketing in this phase, which begins during construction and continues throughout the life of the project, involves two general themes: initial sales and repeat sales.
From page 104...
... 104 facilities are generally located in the median of existing freeways, drivers' choice is one of lane use, not route choice; that is, their decision is whether to use the general-purpose lanes or the managed lanes. To encourage use of the managed lanes, agencies must market their use, and many agencies with operational managed lanes have engaged professional sales and marketing services in parallel with public outreach and education efforts.
