There is a dynamic relationship between the involved parties and the performance of any highway work zone project is governed by this dynamic relationship. This paper presents a decision support system to assist state Departments of Transportation in selecting suitable contracting strategies for highway tween the stakeholders as well work zone projects by considering, at a macro level, the interrelationships be as the critical factors impacting the project.
