The current program of Quality Assurance Stewardship Reviews was established by the Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) in fiscal year (FY) 2003 to assess agency quality assurance (QA) practices. By the end of 2017, all 52 State highway agencies (SHA) including Puerto Rico and the District of Columbia had undergone at least one review. This Summary Report summarizes the findings of the 17 SHA reviews completed in calendar years 2019 through 2023. Previous summaries of Quality Assurance Stewardship Reviews can be downloaded from the FHWA Pavement Publications – QA webpage. The Quality Assurance Stewardship Reviews were a joint effort involving the SHA personnel along with FHWA personnel from Headquarters, the Resource Center, and the Federal-aid Division Offices. Materials practices were examined at the SHA’s headquarters, region/district, and construction project level locations. The observations and findings from the Quality Assurance Stewardship Review program continue to play an important part in the FHWA’s oversight role. These reviews of SHA QA programs allow the FHWA to identify and assess risks to the Federal-aid program. The reviews also provide an avenue to FHWA for the promotion and education of SHAs on new technologies.
