The Transit Cooperative Research Program (TCRP) includes a synthesis series designed to search for and synthesize useful knowledge from all available sources and to prepare the documented reports on current practices in subject areas of concern to the transit industry. This synthesis reports on various practices, making specific recommendations where appropriate but without the detailed directions usually found in handbooks or design manuals. It is an update of the TCRP synthesis 5: Management Information Systems, and documents the transit industry's state of the practice in information and communication technologies against a contemporary background of business practice. It is organized into the basic architectural pieces that constitute an information technology plan in order. Additionally, organizational issues and policies and market trends affecting investment in and deployment of Management Information Systems technology are documented. |
