Funding allocations are mostly controlled by transportation agencies with some local stakeholder involvement and the types of projects have principally been for rehabilitation of highways and bridges. The following is a summary of survey findings: • Responding transportation agencies indicated that 50% of project delivery responsibilities are divided amongst functional units or divisions in DOTs and transportation agencies, while another 40% indicated that project delivery responsibilities resided with a Program/ Project Management unit or division.

From this information, the research team has drawn the following conclusions: • DOTs use a variety of different project delivery phases and milestones. These can be categorized into four generic phases having a set of common activities: – Conceptual Design b Project Initiation b Need and Purpose b Stakeholder Outreach b Project Delivery Planning – Preliminary Design b Engineering Studies b Environmental Analysis b Options Analysis – Final Design b PS&E b Right-of-Way Acquisition b Utility Relocation – Construction b Advertise, Bid, and Award b Construction b Change Orders and Claims Management b Project Closeout • Project Management is still a developing concept for many DOTs.

• Colorado DOT has developed excellent materials related to the provision of guidance in selecting the most appropriate delivery method through its Project Delivery Selection Matrix. • There is an opportunity to better leverage VECPs and ATCs for all the project delivery methods.
