3. Efforts are Collaborative Implementation is cooperative. It engages: –AASHTO –FHWA –SHRP2/TRB staff States are the customers of AASHTO implementation FHWA, TRB also serve locals, academia, MPOs 3

4. Prioritizing States’ Needs AASHTO’s role is focused on identifying which products meet the states’ practical needs We are relying on members and committees to define how implementation can be successful 4

5. What Can SHRP2 Solutions Do For You? Use new assessment tools and processes to understand – and respond to – risk. Better plan for and predict travel-times on busy roadways. Manage complex projects – of all sizes and complexity – with next generation strategies. Deliver a quality product using model performance specifications. 5

6. FHWA Implementation Assistance Program Opportunities for implementation assistance Proof of Concept Pilots Lead Adopter Incentives User Incentives Timeline Application process through FHWA –First round awards announced May 3, 2013 –Tentative schedule for second round: Product announcements in June Product webinars in July Solicitation in early August, final applications due early September; announcement October 6
