A number of studies have already been conducted over the years pertaining to how Caltrans manages data, documents, and content across the organization.

While there are a number of systems being used for document management purposes across Districts and the Capital Outlay Support (COS) Divisions that participated, a single comprehensive solution does not exist within Caltrans.

This project focused on identifying the functional needs of the COS Divisions with an emphasis on project delivery. The purpose was to complete an investigation and prioritization of the current functional needs of those divisions.
