SHRP2 CapacityStrategic Implementation Plan
Why a Strategic Plan?
• Group similar projects and plan for implementation together– Make better use of implementation planning
workshop participants’ time– Identify linkages for the implementation process to
use resources efficiently• Create consistency across capacity focus
area– Implementation goals that can be applied to each
product

Roadmap
26
Focus area implementation success measures
• Number of states seeing successful results from use of the products
• Number of states that incorporate products into standard practice
• Willingness of states to continue to use SP&Rfunds for implementation activities
• Number of academic institutions that incorporate SHRP2 products or processes into curriculum
• Return on investment from using products

Your Role: Discussion
Looking at 2014 and Beyond• As a State DOT:
– What are your DOT priorities?– How can these SHRP2 Solutions help you address
these priorities?– What’s your capacity to take on these products?
• As SCOP:- What role do you wish to play?- How can FHWA/AASHTO best benefit from your
expertise and guidance?

C37:(re)Naming and (re)Branding of C01
Purpose
• TCAPP Workshops:– Participants: The name TCAPP does not communicate well and most
stakeholders, have suggested that a rebranding effort should be undertaken.
– Recommendation: Develop a new name and brand for C01
• Conduct Market Research– Select new name/tag line– Select new logo– Select color palette
• Final Report Available
