Abstract:Documentation of past experiences through the use of a Lessons Learned Program (LLP) is instrumental to an organization’s ability to improve by avoiding past mistakes while adapting to new solutions and methods. Feedback from project stakeholders through interviews and meetings, as well as a national survey of state department of transportation professionals was received and used to properly design and construct an LLP database system for the Georgia Department of Transportation. The Road COnstRuction Database (ReCORD) system was designed to include lesson creation, curation, and publication system interfaces with key features such as push notification, mobile compatibility, and GIS capability. The research team trial tested the ReCORD system prototype with feedback received from survey responses and interviews. The evaluation process resulted in system modifications and improvements such as aesthetic changes, interface simplification, and the reorganization of lesson information. The finalized ReCORD system allows users to enter lesson information—such as lesson title, lesson tags, abstract, location, GDOT projects associated with the lesson, lesson summary, and references—and to upload files. The retrieval interface allows users of the system to receive notifications when lessons associated with tags of interest to the user are published. Ultimately, the system will benefit the Georgia Department of Transportation by providing a more efficient method of archiving and dispersing information.
