Welcome from Task Force Chair, Janet Treadway

November 18, 2021

Greetings everyone. 

As 2021 is coming to a close, we have become accustomed to working from home in most cases. In conversations with personnel at some agencies, the work from home experience has morphed into the expected ongoing experience. I hope that you, like I, have been able to enjoy some of the extra time with family and friends with the removal of the commute to and from the office.  The AASHTOWare Project Task Force wants to thank every one of you for your continued commitment and passion for enhancing the AASHTOWare Project product suite. We wish you and yours safe and happy holiday experiences.  

AASHTO, SCOA, and the PTF would like to thank Kristen McDaniel for her effort and time working on the Project Task Force. During her time on the Task Force, she shared her valuable experience and knowledge in Construction/Materials, overall product management, and training during implementation.

Thank you, Kristen!
