Reading List:

The publications in the 'reading list' are just that, documents that have been identified by NHTSA and TSASS as examples of reports and references related to Performance Measures which may be of value to those responsible for writing State Strategic Plans.  Other documents will be added as they are identified.

Creating SMART Goals - a short 'think piece' about setting goals that can be used to evaluate projects.

DOE Performance Measures Handbook - A report by DOE on their perspective about defining performance goals.

Health Program Performance Measurement - a link to health-specific performance measures.

State of Practice in Safety Management Systems - A report prepared by Jack Zogby in the days of Safety Management

TRB Report - Performance Measures for Transportation Systems

TSIS Management System Samples:

There are a few documents that are posted here related to the NHTSA TSIS Program Management System that are intended to provide examples of the various reports that are being provided to NHTSA - based upon the information submitted in the State Strategic Plans - and what the states provide in their progress reports.

Sample Reports Descriptions: This document provides a brief description of the following sample reports from the prototype TSIS Management System.

• Project Summary Report

This report documents each project in a State Strategic Plan.  To the furthest extent possible we have cataloged performance measures, goals, and milestones for each project.  The system will allow us to enter progress reporting and to prepare monitoring summaries as shown later.

The area highlighted in yellow is the information that will be at the public web site.  All other information will only be available to the specific state so they can verify what we have on file for them, and to NHTSA.

• Tables 1.01 / 1.02 – Projects by System & Performance Area

This pair of tables will be prepared by State or Region.  It shows the tally of projects by system area and performance area on the top of the page, and the number that are currently meeting or exceeding their stated performance goal.

• Table 2.01 – Projects by Milestone Status

This report shows the current status of projects by state.  The status values are a function of the projected date versus reported date for each milestone.

• Table 3.01 – MMUCC Elements by State

This table shows what MMUCC database elements are being collected for each state.  A similar report will be prepared for NEMSIS elements.

• Table 3.02 – MMUCC Elements of Time

This report shows, for a specific state, what elements they reported as being collected in their database by program year.

• Additional Reports

 We will also prepare reports from the TSIS Systems Inventory showing what a state has reported over time.  We have archived the past two years of TR Systems updates and will produce a report for each state that lists what they reported for each numeric field or fixed classification level by year.  For example, one of the questions in the Crash Data System area asks the length of time from the occurrence of a crash to when it is available for analysis.  This ‘crash timeliness’ measure will be shown by program year.
