Technology and Knowledge Transfer to Influence the Development of Policies and Procedures Within State Departments of Transportations (DOTs)

Synopsis The Federal Highway Administration intends to award a sole source, indefinite delivery/indefinite quantity (IDIQ) contract to the American Association of State Highway and Transportation Officials (AASHTO). The primary objective of this prospective contract would be to assist the Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) in key program areas as they relate to the use of technology and knowledge transfer to influence the development of policies and procedures within State departments of transportations (DOTs) to provide improved benefits to the traveling public by optimizing the operations of state transportation systems. It is also intended to provide a mechanism for promoting, enhancing and expanding the role of transportation systems operations within the departments of transportation (DOT) of the States. Because the organization structure related to the DOT is different among the States, often subject to change because of changes in the administrations of the States, and potentially politically sensitive, a national association with the technical and institutional knowledge, history and respect of the State DOT administrations is necessary to effectively provide this operations support. Interested parties should submit a description of their capabilities for satisfying this requirement which demonstrates they possess the ability to successfully perform this effort. All questions concerning this matter should be addressed directly to Rob Miller at contact@example.gov, or by telephone at +1 (555) 000-0000.
