Abstract:This paper is part of a series of papers being prepared under the title "Ways to Improve Traditional Opportunities for IVHS Deployment". It addresses the specific issue of alternative procedures to be considered for the deployment of the time critical Advanced Traffic Management System (ATMS) and Advanced Traveller Information System (ATIS) components of IVHS. Further, the ATIS component is restricted to the field infrastructure and does not include the in-vehicle component. The alternatives considered are defined as Program Management and Design/Build. These approaches are compared to the more traditional Engineer/Contractor approach. It is the author's opinion that three methods described in the paper all offer potential and that all will be used. It is also the opinion of the author that none of the three, in isolation, are likely to meet the expectations of the IVHS program. The engineer/contractor approach is to slow and cumbersome and may not adequately treat technology based projects, and neither program management or design/build will be accepted by all public agencies, with the design/build likely to meet the strongest resistance by some agencies
