Abstract:"The purpose of this research project was to provide a framework for the development of a Bridge
Management Information System (BMIS). Researchers developed a synthesis of current BMIS development
activities and identified sources of data available to develop a BMIS. Researchers also developed a shortterm
BMIS architecture, with a proof-of-concept prototype, which links bridge-related data sources at
TxDOT that enables the production of queries and reports needed for a variety of analytical purposes. For
development of a long-term enterprise-wide BMIS architecture, researchers presented features of a proposed
BMIS to TxDOT personnel in the Bridge Division and six districts. Researchers obtained feedback from
those presentations to help identify user and data needs for a BMIS. The report contains conclusions and
recommendations for BMIS development. The appendices in the report include a synthesis of the findings
and the methodology that the researchers used on how to make a fragmented system into a BMIS system that
can provide needed data and results for users."
