... Increased investment in resilience puts additional focus on state DOTs to evaluate their efforts and demonstrate progress toward improving the resilience of the transportation system. This guide seeks to assist transportation practitioners in evaluating the effectiveness of policies, programs, projects, and other resilience strategies that agencies invest in or create.

... 1.2 Strategic Implementation Model This guide steers transportation agencies through the process of identifying and deploying RPMs from end to end. Figure 1.1 provides a step-by-step process for incorporating RPMs into the existing performance management process: • It starts with developing goals and objectives for what the agency wants to accomplish based on their understanding of resilience.

... • Next, agencies will conduct a baseline assessment of the resilience of their assets, corridors, and systems based on historical data. • Agencies will then set targets based on a future assessment that, depending on the RPM, either extends the baseline assessment forecast or incorporates future projections, including natural hazard variability.

... 1.4 Foundational Elements of Performance Management Finally, in addition to the main sections, this guide also includes callout boxes to highlight foundational and critical elements of effective performance management that apply the guide to real-life examples or situations. These callout boxes include the following: • Organization and Culture.

... This research was primarily focused on roadway assets and operations under state DOT pur view, but in consultation with the NCHRP Project 23-26 panel, the research team included con siderations for community resilience within the limitation of applying it to roadway asset classes that may serve multimodal purposes and transit operations.
