Building Capacity for Self-Assessment of Data Effectiveness for Agency Business Needs

The objectives of this research are to encourage dissemination and application of the principles and practices presented in NCHRP Report 814: Data to Support Transportation Agency Business Needs: A Self-Assessment Guide by (1) developing a plan to deliver professional services support for selected agencies undertaking to apply the principles and practices presented in NCHRP Report 814; (2) preparing guidance and communication materials, supplemental to NCHRP Report 814, on preparation for and support of the conduct of a data self-assessment; (3) providing limited assistance to each agency during the data self-assessment; and (4) documenting effective practices of participating agencies that could be transferrable to other agencies for adopting principles and practices for assessing and improving their data adequacy to support agency business needs. Upon completion of this research project, each participating agency should have developed and at least initiated action to follow a management roadmap for implementing unified, enterprise-wide governance of transportation system data self-assessment.
