FY17 Top Accomplishments

The new process will accomplish thefollowing: (1) uniform and consistentinvoice processes and proceduresDepartment wide; (2) real-time lifecyclechain-of-custody and approval flow fromreceipt to submission to the OCFO forpayment; (3) minimization of latepayment fees; (4) rejection of invoices ina timely manner; (5) rigorous QA/QCprocess; (6) elimination of processingbottlenecks by assigning backup staff; (7)reduction of complaints due to lateprocessing and payment; and (8) betterpartnerships with contractors andsubcontractors.

DDOT's project deliverywill be faster and reduceunnecessary fees, whichwill improve efficiencyfor DC's residents.

ProTrack+ has enhanced coordinationacross internal DDOT groups, improvedthe contracting process with externalorganizations, and provides a GIS-centered view of work by DDOT as well as

Accomplishment Impact on Agency Impact on Residents

New Invoice Tracking Process and System: DDOT launched invoiceprocess improvements on October 1, 2017. This was a year-longeffort that started with a 3-month Lean Six Sigma interagency effortin response to a Federal Highway Administration Prompt PaymentReview whereby DDOT was found to be non-compliant in payingcontractors on time. This process improvement resulted in a StandardOperating Procedure and a new Invoice Tracking System as a part ofProTrack+ along with training of over 200 staff. Additionally, anInvoice Review Team was established to track and report performancemetrics, review and resolve complaints, train staff, and modifyprocesses and procedures to improve performance.

ProTrack+ Software Roll Out for Project Coordination across DDOTand between Agencies: DDOT developed and implemented anapplication called ProTrack+ (E Construction) which is now the mainsystem for the project pipeline from Call for Projects to Close Out.ProTrack+ is a cradle to grave project tracking application that allows

DDOT to start from the “Call for Projects” through obligation tocontract process to construction to close out. ProTrack+ incorporatesall interaction with OCP, OCFO, FHWA and DDOT staff so it is aseamless process that allows the users to know where each project isalong this process pipeline. Training and enhancements are ongoingas are the build out of newer modules such as invoice tracking,Change Order Requests and Project Plan Reviews.

South Capitol/Frederick Douglass Memorial Bridge Contract Award:During FY17, DDOT awarded contracts for the Design-Buildconstruction and the Program Management/Construction Management(PM/CM) for Phase I of the South Capitol Street project. Phase Iincluded the replacement of the deteriorating Frederick DouglassMemorial Bridge, the construction of land-side improvements,including new open spaces and waterfront trail access, on both sidesof the Anacostia River, and reconstruction of the Suitland Parkway/I-295 highway interchange. In addition to these two contracts, DDOTadvanced the acquisition of the right-of-way necessary for theroadway improvements. In FY18, DDOT will complete right-of-wayacquisition, finalize the project design, and begin constructionactivities. Substantial completion of the project, including demolitionof the existing bridge is anticipated in FY21.

INTELLIGENT TRANSPORTATION SYSTEMS (1 Strategic Initiative)

This project is part of Washington D.C.'sgoal to improve overall traffic flow,optimize pedestrian crossing times andreduce bus delays. DDOT will continue itsprogram of systematically optimizing thetimings of all traffic signals. 1243 trafficsignals have been optimized to-date. In FY2017, DDOT will complete optimization oflast 384 traffic signals (Eastern corridor) inthe system. DDOT intends to continue thissystem-wide optimization program once inevery five years (1600+ traffic signals).

Complete New timing plans were developedand implemented for the lastnetwork (376 signals, North-Eastnetwork) in Summer, 2017. Itconcludes the Round-1 of theCitywide Signal OptimizationProgram (1650 traffic signals).

A notice toproceed should be issued in Q1 ofFY18.

The research programfunds to support thisproject were not availableuntil late July (due to STIPand other FHWA-causeddelays). Uncertainty aboutthe timing of fundingavailability (in flux fromFeb-July) prevented thecontracting process fromgetting substantiallyunderway before then.Upside was that thesummer intern was able tohelp put together a veryrobust scope.

In conjunction with other jurisdictions,DDOT is working to negotiate a 6-yearcapital funding agreement for WMATA withnew project prioritization and reportingrequirements.
