CDOT Soliciting Problem Statements for FY19 Research Program
07-Sep-2017 to 11-Oct-2017
The CDOT Division of Transportation Development Applied Research andInnovation Branch (ARIB) is soliciting problem statements to develop the
FY19 research program.
This effort is undertaken to formulate a comprehensive set of transportationrelated
research ideas. Once the research ideas are prioritized, selected and
funded, a CDOT study panel develops the final scope of work and universities
and consultants are asked to submit proposals to conduct the research. For
approved projects, funds will be available for encumbrance in October of
2018. Problem statements are due to CDOT research staff by Friday, October 27,
2017. A problem statement is a short form describing a transportation
problem and/or potential innovation that is proposed for detailed study.
Research ideas will be reviewed by the appropriate CDOT Research
Oversight Team (ROT) members and then submitted to the Research and
Implementation Council (RIC) for ranking, approval, and fund allocation. More information is detailed in the Solicitation Notice.
