摘要: Transportation Research Board conference on U.S. and international approaches to performance measurement for transportation systems was conducted September 12-15, 2007, at the Arnold and Mabel Beckman Center of the National Academies in Irvine, California. The theme for this third in a series of international conferences, Better Decisions and Better Communication, was selected to highlight opportunities for and experiences in using performance measurement as a strategic tool to better communicate goals and objectives and results to a wide range of stakeholder groups. In particular, the communication theme was discussed in presentations by David Kuehn, Shintaro Terabe, and Daniela Bremmer. Throughout the program, presentations highlighted cases in which performance measures have proved useful in guiding resource allocation decisions, improving day-to-day operations, establishing and demonstrating agency competency and accountability and, in some instances, making the case for more resources. TRB assembled a committee, appointed by the National Research Council (NRC), to organize and develop the conference program.
