Implementation
From October 2007 to March 2009
the Louisiana DOTD Worked on Implementing
CES – Cost Estimation BAMS\DSS – Bid Analysis
Preconstruction

Implementation
Did it go as smooth as butter? Did we have are ups and downs? Has the work finished?

Major Challenges
Data Conversion & Migration Master Pay Item File Training
![Page 13: By: Sarah Collins, LA DOTD. March 2009 Louisiana DOTD Went Into Production with Trnsport Preconstruction! June 2009 Over 40 projects let in Preconstruction!](https://reader037.vdocument.in/reader037/viewer/2022110320/56649cac5503460f9496eac9/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
Data Conversion & Migration
Legacy System: BIDS What data to convert?
Project Plan: Convert five years of data. Reality: Converted all projects with 2000 and 2006
Spec Years.
Keeping systems synchronized. Stimulus Projects
![Page 14: By: Sarah Collins, LA DOTD. March 2009 Louisiana DOTD Went Into Production with Trnsport Preconstruction! June 2009 Over 40 projects let in Preconstruction!](https://reader037.vdocument.in/reader037/viewer/2022110320/56649cac5503460f9496eac9/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
Master Pay Item File
BIDS and Specialty Items SiteManager Materials Adjusting to Change
Major Issue Everyone had their own ideas. No one wanted to let go of that ability (from Design to
Construction)
A consensus was obtained. 2008 Spec Year was created based off of the 2006
Spec Book

Training
Underestimated Headquarters (6 main offices) Districts (9 offices) Only 5 days of Preconstruction training scheduled
Developed a Strategy

Training Strategy
We identify a “System Expert(s)” from each office.
Formally trained the System Experts Open the Trns•port Training and Assistance
Center At Headquarters 5 weeks over 3 month period Manned by InfoTech
Conducted District “Road Shows”

The Future
October 2010: ERP Go-Live
2010\2011: Electronic Lettings for the Districts District Lets Project < $500,000 with no Federal
money.
2011\2012: CRLMS
