  • Abstract:
    Federal regulations (23 CFR 420 Subpart B) require that each state must agree to peer reviews of it’s Research, Development, and Technology Transfer management process to be eligible for managing State Planning and Research (SP&R) funds. The Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) interpreted the peer meetings to be more of an exchange of information regarding the various practices used by states to manage their RD&T2 programs. The intent was to strengthen weak programs and enhance strong programs with a sharing of ideas. The peer exchange teams are typically composed of state research managers, FHWA, university or industry personnel, at least two of which must have received training provided by FHWA and are maintained on a list of qualified peer exchange team members. Peer exchanges are generally conducted in an informal atmosphere and last 2-4 days. Techniques used to gather information include discussion of individual state practices, informal interviews with users of the RD&T2 products and brainstorming sessions on the focus areas of interest to the host state. Open ended questions are used during the interview sessions to solicit the strengths and weaknesses of the program form the user’s perspective.
