Abstract:This document assembles best practices and presents practical advice on how to acquire the software components of Intelligent Transportation Systems (ITS). The intended audience is the "customers" - the project leaders, technical contract managers, decision makers, and consultants - who are responsible for one or more ITS systems. The document presents a series of themes that serve as guiding principles for building a successful acquisition. Included are people themes of collaboration, team building, open communications, and active customer involvement, which have been likened to partnering, management themes of flexibility. Software acquisition activities that build upon these themes are presented. Among the activities covered are building a team, developing requirements, making build/buy decisions, resolving the intellectual property rights, acceptance testing, and project and risk management.
