A Scheduling Assistant Toolkit for GDOT’s Effective Planning of Transportation Projects

This research aims to (1) capture true productivity rates for certain project activities (e.g., asphalt, GAB, grading/earthwork) through benchmarking selected Georgia Department of Transportation (GDOT) projects, and to identify a set of best practices for GDOT to continuously collect and capture true productivity rates in future projects, and (2) to develop a scheduling assistant toolkit for determining a recommended degree of overlapping among project activities. To achieve the goals of this proposal, this research will address the following research tasks outlined in the work plan section below.
