Abstract:This report documents the work performed during Project 0-6387, “Performance Based Roadside
Maintenance Specifications.” Quality assurance methods and specifications for roadside performance-based
maintenance contracts (PBMCs) were developed for potential use by TxDOT. These methods include a set
of performance standards and timeliness requirements, a statistical condition assessment method for
evaluating compliance with these performance standards, and a method for developing performance-based
pay adjustment formulas. The developed performance standards, condition assessment method, and pay
adjustment formulas were tested and refined using field trials. The field trials consisted of five 10-mi
roadway segments located in TxDOT’s Dallas, El Paso, San Antonio, Tyler, and Waco Districts. Finally,
current practices in best-value bid evaluation methods for procuring PBMCs were identified and evaluated
using simulation techniques.
