METHODS OF OVERSIGHT. FHWA will utilize various approaches to accomplish oversight activities. Continuous Process Improvement Study (CPIS) reviews, process reviews, sampling/testing of program and/or project compliance, project-by-project involvement, telephone contacts, participation in meetings, participation on task forces and committees, and similar types of activities will be used. CPISs will be the primary method of program oversight. The following techniques may be used to provide stewardship and oversight to the FAHP:
METHODS OF OVERSIGHT. A. FHWA will employ a risk management framework in consultation with TxDOT to evaluate program areas to balance risk with consideration of staffing resources, funding within FAHP, and highway needs within the state. TxDOT will work collaboratively with FHWA to identify risks and make practical resources available to address FHWA's risk assessment findings. The following table highlights some potential risks that may affect an individual project's risk profile. • Permitting problems • Design Changes • Poor / Incomplete Design • Cost OverrunsCash Flow Deficiencies • Technology Risks • Schedule Delays • Litigation B. TxDOT and FHWA will monitor activities and exercise controls as necessary within their respective areas of responsibility to ensure all Federal-aid projects are carried out in compliance with applicable laws, regulations and standards. The monitoring of these activities is intended to evaluate procedures and policies used in delivering the FAHP, along with identifying deficiencies and opportunities for improvement. Furthermore, the monitoring activity will be both on a program-wide and project level basis, as necessary, using key processes such as (but not necessarily limited to) project reviews, program reviews, stewardship assessment reviews (SARs), peer reviews, partnering activities, and task force activities. Other methods of monitoring projects and programs include reviewing TxDOT reports, attending monthly meetings, and performing the normal day-to-day interactions with the various agencies. Reviews may encompass the total operation or be limited to one or more segments; i.e., the project development phase, the contracting phase, or the construction phase. Further discussion of the key processes is provided below.
