| Summary: | Over the last 20 years most road
agencies have implemented some form of computerized road
management system (RMS). The purpose of these systems is to
assist the road agency in the planning and prioritization of
road investments. While some systems have been successful,
there have also been many which have failed in one or more
areas. This is in spite of large investments of time and
money. While it is often easy to identify the symptoms of
failure, the causes are often complex and multi-layered.
However, for every failed system, there is a more successful
implementation somewhere in the world, in an agency that
often suffers from similar problems and constraints. This
Note describes the different factors associated with
successful RMS implementations. It is a summary of the
report Success Factors for Road Management Systems. |
