• Very few states have any system in place to track the efficacy of their CR program. States with formal CR policies track whether a CR was conducted or not and some states track the total number of CRs performed, but there is little information being collected regarding the implementation of CR comments, reduction in change orders, or cost and time savings resulting from the CRs.
