| Overview |
|
 Project Leaders (PLs) manage the development and design phase of internally delivered highway construction projects and report to Area Managers within each Region. PLs lead project management processes, including: scope, schedule, budget, stakeholder participation, communication, issue resolution, risk and decision-making. They also manage and facilitate project development teams and serve as the primary point of contact for the overall project development process.
The Project Leader Statewide Team meets quarterly to identify areas for process improvement, share tools and information, resolve issues, communicate, and develop as project management professionals.
The PLs have also established a statewide Project Leader Leadership Team (PLLT) comprised of one PL from each region, Project Delivery Unit staff, and an Area Manager sponsor. The purpose of the PLLT is to:
- Recommend and provide or promote professional training, mentoring, and development programs specific to Project Leaders within the organization.
- Provide a networking forum for communication, discussion, and problem solving for Project Leaders statewide.
- Recommend policies/procedures/decisions.
- Develop and share tools, techniques, best practices, guides.
- Recommend or support process controls for statewide consistency.
The PLLT meets monthly to plan quarterly meetings, review and monitor the annual work plan, and discuss issues. Sub-committees are established as needed to address specific issues or work plan topics.
