Creating Organiza tional Change
Traditional Engineering Department would not scale to
handle increased work load
Reviewed other major transportation organizations to
learn from their large project management systems
– DFW Airport ($2.1 billion, 5 years)
– Florida Turnpike Enterprise ($5 billion, 5 years)
– T Rex, Colorado ($1.7 billion, 5 years)
– I-15, Salt Lake City ($1.6 billion, open for 2002 Olympics)
– Illinois Tollway ($5 billion, 10 years)

PMO – Lessons Learned
Rapidly mobilized new organization to respond to
change
Developed valuable procedures and standardization
Too many layers and levels
– Message diluted
– Delayed decision making
– Difficulties in resolving conflicts
Responsibility without authority
Contractors confused – who’s in charge?
● N o r t h T e x a s To l l w a y A u t h o r i t y ●
PMO ver. 2
Size of the program shrinking
Reorganized the PMO structure
– PMO functional leads report to staff subject matter experts
– Eliminated senior PMO management layers
– Senior staff member involved in day-to-day activities
Decisions on budget, schedule, quality stay in-house

Funding Gap
Chisholm Trail Parkway Construction
00/00/00
A lot of dollars
$$$$$$$
North Texas Tollway Authority
● N o r t h T e x a s To l l w a y A u t h o r i t y ●
Solving the Funding Gap
Considered value engineering and staging/ phasing
of construction:
Reduced pavement thickness
Use of RAP in HMA
Balanced the earthwork for the entire project,
not just within a section
Deferred construction of several direct
connectors
Deferred construction of ultimate roadway
section in allowable areas
● N o r t h T e x a s To l l w a y A u t h o r i t y ●
Financing the Project
Applied for federal assistance (TIGER and TIFIA)
Received $116 million TIGER grant
Did not receive TIFIA loan
Looked at innovative financing – entered into TELA
with TxDOT to reduce borrowing costs
Brought costs down to $1.4 billion
