PBS&J's Orange Books
The PBS&J ITS Orange Book™ program is designed to capture the state of the art or practice for a range of specialist topics related to the application of information and telecommunication technologies to transportation.
Each ITS Orange Book™ originates as a hot-topic suggestion from the ITS community at large; one of the various activity centers for ITS research and knowledge sharing around the world; a PBS&J client, or PBS&J professional. PBS&J then polls the ITS community to ascertain the level of interest in the subject before negotiating with relevant co-sponsors. Once interest has been established, prospective participants identified, and sponsorship arrangements put in place, the four-step development process can begin.
