The peer exchange meeting was held for the purpose of benchmarking Ohio's local-let program with those of departments of transportation (DOTs) in other states; collecting information and input on technological advances for data capture, reporting, and assurance of program compliance for these programs; and learning about the ways that various state DOTs collaborate with local public agencies (LPAs) to allow LPAs to administer federal-aid projects. The overall goal of the meeting was to exchange policies, best practices, and concepts that will help Ohio DOT improve its overall program compliance tracking and the collection of the required data for federal-aid local projects. Five departments of transportation participated in the peer exchange meeting, including Ohio DOT, Virginia DOT, Oregon DOT, Iowa DOT, and Michigan DOT. The meeting was attended by Ohio DOT Office of Local Program personnel. Representatives from FHWA Ohio Division, other personnel from Ohio DOT Central Office, district engineers and construction monitors from different Ohio DOT district offices, and representatives of local agencies were also in attendance. The meeting covered two main topics. The first topic focused on the current state-of-the-practice on data collection for local projects and project tracking, the benefits and shortcomings associated with the use of the DOTs' current systems for these purposes, and any lessons learned in the process of selecting the current system(s). The second topic focused on providing recommendations for an improved system or systems that Ohio DOT could use for data capture, data analysis, reporting, and assurance of federal-aid program compliance. This report was prepared to document the information shared during the peer exchange meeting and to summarize the policies, best practices, and concepts discussed during the meeting with regard to improving the data collection and overall compliance tracking for federal-aid local projects. System recommendations for potential consideration by the Ohio DOT Office of Local Programs are also provided in this repor
