Virginia's transportation research peer exchange : July 19-21, 2010 / by Paul, Harold R.(CARDINAL)313379; Virginia Transportation Research Council.(CARDINAL)195142;
Introduction -- Peer Exchange Panel -- Charge to the Peer Exchange Panel -- Content and Format of the Peer Exchange -- Responses of the Peer Exchange Panel to the Questions.Final report.To be eligible for managing State Planning and Research (SP & R) funds, a state must agree to a peer review of its management process with regard to Research, Development, and Technology Transfer (RD & T2) efforts. The Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) interpreted the required peer reviews to be an exchange of information regarding the various practices a state uses to manage its RD & T2 programs. The intent of the regulation was to strengthen weak programs and enhance strong programs with a sharing of ideas. The peer exchange panels are typically composed of state research managers and FHWA, university, or industry personnel, at least two of whom must have received training on peer exchange procedures and guidelines provided by FHWA and be listed by FHWA as a qualified peer exchange team member. Peer exchanges are generally conducted in an informal atmosphere and last from two to four days. Techniques used to gather the information needed by the peer exchange panel include discussion of individual state practices and brainstorming sessions on the focus areas of interest to the host state. Open-ended questions are used during the interview sessions to solicit the strengths and weaknesses of the program from the user's perspective. From July 19 through 21, 2010, the Virginia Transportation Research Council (VTRC) hosted a peer exchange with state department of transportation research managers/directors from Louisiana, North Carolina, Rhode Island, and West Virginia and a representative from the Virginia Division of the FHWA.
