| Abstract | The evaluation presents an assessment of South Carolina's Virtual Transit Enterprise (VTE) project up to February 2005. The VTE is a shared technology solution to bring the state's public transit providers together to solve mutual problems. The cornerstone of the project is a Web-based communication network through which transit providers and South Carolina Department of Transportation (SCDOT) access standardized software resources located in a central location. The VTE offers a variety of products to users: electronic invoicing, email, automated scheduling and dispatching, reporting, and vehicle maintenance management. The evaluation is being conducted as a requirement of the VTE grants that FTA awarded to SCDOT in FY1998 through FY2000. It tells the story of the VTE project implementation, determines how well the project meets the objectives of the sponsors and users, examines the effects of the projects on participants, determines how well the technology is performing, and enumerates lessons learned. |
