Most public agencies responsible for managing pavements have adopted Pavement Management Systems (PMS) to help manage their pavement networks more cost-effectively. One of the most costly parts of operating a PMS is collecting network-level pavement condition information, especially pavement distress data. Agencies are faced with developing procedures and guidelines for quality management of these activities. Agencies using contractor provided services for pavement data collection have had to develop methods for contractor selection, monitoring during the contract period, and data acceptance. Agencies using staff resources for pavement data collection have had to develop similar quality control activities which include training of their staff. Many agencies have also had to cope with adapting to changing automation technologies which decrease cost but pose challenges with time-history consistency of the data being collected.
