Abstract
Documentation of past experiences through the use of a Lessons Learned Program (LLP) is instrumental to an organizations ability to improve by avoiding past mistakes while adapting to new solutions and methods. Feedback from project stakeholders through interviews and meetings as well as a national survey of state Department of Transportation professionals was received and used to properly design and construct the database system. The Road COnstRuction Database (ReCORD) system was designed to include lesson creation, curation, and publication system interfaces with key features such as push notification, mobile compatibility, and GIS capability. The ReCORD system prototype was trial tested with feedback received from survey responses and interviews. The evaluation process resulted in system modifications and improvements such as aesthetic changes, interface simplification, and the reorganization of lesson information. This system will benefit the Georgia Department of Transportation by providing a more efficient method of archiving and dispersing information.
