  • Abstract:
    Regulations contained in 23 CFR Part 420 establish procedures under which the Federal

    Highway Administration (FHWA) may allow states increased flexibility for directing and

    controlling their program initiatives. These regulations set forth the minimum Federal

    requirements for carrying out Research activities using FHWA State Planning and

    Research (SP&R) funds. One of these conditions stipulates that the State Transportation

    Agency (STA) will conduct a peer exchange of their research management processes on a

    “periodic basis”. Each state is responsible for selecting and organizing the peer exchange

    team for its state exchange. Mississippi DOT hosted its initial Research Peer Exchange on

    June 15-18, 1998 in Jackson, Mississippi. This final report details the results of

    Mississippi’s second research peer exchange which was performed on September 24-26,

    2002 in Jackson, Mississippi.

    The Peer Exchange concept as used herein denotes a process of convening a team

    composed of invited research managers from other agencies. The team, together with the

    host agency discusses and reviews their management processes. Information from the host

    agency as well as the agencies represented by team members is exchanged with the intent

    to gaining insights that have the potential to improve the research management process of

    both the host agency as well as those of the peer exchange team members.
