- Partnerships & Commercialization—CCIT works with researchers to identify
commercial partners to develop or productize a promising innovation as early as
possible. This also includes facilitating researcher-industry forums to highlight
upcoming concepts; assisting industry partners to navigate the process of
engagement with public agencies; and building interagency partnerships.
- Technical Implementation Support—CCIT supports implementation projects
during the development stages, including field testing and evaluation, and then
assists practitioners with implementation to enable widespread deployment.
- Business Cases & Outreach—CCIT takes on the promotion of new technologies
by developing business cases and cost-benefit analyses. This also includes workshops and forums aimed at communicating the benefits of selected innovations and collecting feedback from practitioners.
- Technology Assessments—CCIT looks externally to monitor industry trends,
identify technologies that deserve research, and assess products and services that are already on the market—perhaps in different industries—for use by practitioners.
- Innovation Portfolio Management—CCIT assists transportation agencies with
the management of publicly funded research and its implementation. This includes
issues such as deployment roadmaps, intellectual property rights, or measuring the return on investment of research.
