ITS4US DEPLOYMENT ACCELERATOR PROGRAM

Bringing American Innovation to Your Community

Coming Soon

ITS4US Deployment Accelerator Program is a new ITS JPO initiative, in coordination with FTA, to pilot systematically replicating successful technology deployments across multiple locations nationwide.

This project aims to significantly accelerate targeted follow-on deployments following the successful path charted by the ITS4US program sites.

Proof-of-Concept that:

  • Leverages proven ITS technologies.
  • Provides knowledge and technical expertise of current deployers with future deployers.
  • Provides seed funding to replicate project with facilitated peer exchange.

Program at a Glance:

  • Anticipated Awards: Up to 5 deployers
  • Deployment Period: 12 months
  • Period of Performance: 18 months
  • Documentation Period: 6 months following deployment

Replicator Requirements:

Propose a multi-disciplinary team that must include:

  • Mobility Services Operator/Provider
  • Software Integrator
  • Healthcare Partner (Public/Private)

Demonstrate their successful deployment within 12 months.

Publish changes and extensions of the Health Connector Middleware components (MOD-EHR and MOD-Medicaid) as open-source code on the ITS CodeHub.

Document effectiveness of support and artifacts provided by USDOT.

Engage cohort peers in structured knowledge sharing.

Benefits to Awardees

Technical Support

Direct access to technical expertise from the HIRTA Health Connector team, the people who built and operate the system every day.

Tested Technology

Proven open-source code ready to deploy. MOD-HER and MOD-Medicaid are available on ITS CodeHub today.

Peer Cohort

Fellow deployers working through the same challenges at the same time, with structured knowledge sharing across all awardee sites.

The Bottom Line:

Awardees enter with working code, tested partnerships, peer support, and expert guidance, dramatically reducing deployment risk, cost, and timeline compared to starting from scratch.
