NCHRP FY 2024 Program Announcement and Solicitation for Panel Nominations
22 May 2023
Panel Nominations Due by June 30, 2023
On April 13-14, 2023, the AASHTO Special Committee on Research and Innovation (R&I) formulated NCHRP's FY 2024 Program. Although the FY 2024 projects are tentative (they have not yet been approved by States' ballot), we are soliciting now for nominees to meet future deadlines.
Please identify or nominate qualified individuals online, through this link, by June 30, 2023. We encourage the nomination of members of historically underrepresented groups, including women, young professionals (age 35 and younger), and members of minority groups.
FHWA employees will receive an e-mail from Ms. Jean Landolt on the assignment of FHWA liaisons. As a reminder, FHWA employees may serve as liaisons to NCHRP panels but not as members.
Contacts to determine an individual's interest in serving will be made from this office after we have matched available expertise with that required by the nature of the project.
- Panels for the new projects are scheduled to meet in person, beginning in August through November. Panel members are prohibited from submitting or participating in preparation of proposals on projects under their jurisdiction. They serve without compensation but are paid travel and subsistence expenses. Travel insurance is provided at no cost to the members. In many cases, three meetings are held in the life of a project, and these normally occur in Washington, D.C. The first meeting is to develop a request for proposals that is used to solicit proposals; the second meeting is to select a research agency from among those submitting proposals. Typically, a third meeting will be held to review progress with the research team while the research is active.
- Membership on each panel will number approximately eight, and panels operate under the guidance of a chair. The NCHRP staff serves as the secretariat.
Before nominating yourself to serve as a panel member, please review our Conflict of Interest policy. Please be advised that if you are selected to serve on a panel and we receive a proposal for that project that presents a conflict of interest for you, we will reject the proposal. This also applies to liaisons.
