摘要: In 1879 Cleveland became the worlds first city to be lighted electrically when Charles Brush set up arc lights on the city streets. From that day forward, the Buckeye State, as Ohio is called, has worked to promote diversity and innovation and has become a leader in agricultural production and a number of industrial/commercial ventures. And innovation is not limited to the private sector. The Ohio Department of Transportation (ODOT) has demonstrated its commitment to this concept by stepping out of the shadows and reengineering itself in order to provide the citizens of Ohio with the best return on their investment. The task was a daunting one. By the mid-1990s, ODOT had 7,800 employees; agency operating costs rising at an average rate of 5.7 percent; and 24.68 percent of its multi-lane pavement in need of immediate rehabilitation. The Interstate construction boom had ended, and the organization's centralized structure was not conducive to asset management. After a thorough self-assessment, ODOT began a reengineering process that would breathe new life into the organization. VISION 2000, as ODOT management called it, was a groundbreaking philosophy for the department. It said that an agency must continually reexamine itself in order to achieve excellence and meet the demands of its customers. Based on that philosophy, ODOT redefined its mission, values, and goals. The agency decentralized, organizing all operations under three core functions; giving the districts authority over their own project budgets; and making the Central Office responsible for policy and guidance. / Availability Note: Order this product from NTIS by: phone at 1-800-553-NTIS (U.S. customers); (703)605-6000 (other countries); fax at (703)605-6900; and email at orders@ntis.gov.
