WORKSHOP SESSION 13: INSTITUTIONAL ISSUES AFFECTING PAVEMENT MANAGEMENT AND USE, AND METHODS TO OVERCOME OR BYPASS THEM

Workshop Session 13 was one of two sessions devoted to institutional issues affecting pavement management system (PMS) implementation. The purpose of the sessions was to get those involved in pavement management to help identify methods to overcome institutional and people barriers to PMS implementation and use. Institutional issues were divided into three types: (1) people issues and barriers (4 issues); (2) organizational issues and barriers (11 issues); and (3) system design, development, and selection (3 issues). Session 13 addressed 11 of these 18 issues. The other 7 issues were addressed in Workshop Session 24.
