During the research, certain terminology and concepts were found to be a challenge, in that their definition varied from stakeholder to stakeholder. Attempts to clearly define these terms and concepts and then include them in the analytical methods were met, in some cases, with much frustration. Examples of these terms include:
• Value • Effectiveness • Efficiency • Customer service • Risk • Iterative • Nominal Examples of concepts include:
• Impacts on Highway Safety when a Private Corporation Operates the Toll Road • Impacts on Traffic Delay if Traffic Demand is not Assumed Inelastic
• Fundamentals Behind the Role of Government
• The Challenges Associated with Measuring User Specific Costs and Benefits • The Role of Equity Among Users
• The Role of Dillon’s Rule in P3 Agreements
Future research could concentrate on defining these terms and concepts and their role with respect to the DSS process, with the goal of including them in the analytical methods.
