Denver RTD Earns Regional Honor for FasTracks

The Rocky Mountain Performance Excellence (RMPEX) Program recently honored Denver’s Regional Transportation District with the Foothills Award for excellence in sound management and systems practices in its FasTracks program. RMPEX is a non-profit effort based on the national Malcolm Baldrige Performance Excellence Program.

For the past seven months, RTD provided information on how it manages the rail and bus expansion program, including interviews with FasTracks staff. RMPEX examiners evaluated the program on its key work processes, which include systems planning, procurement, quality oversight, project controls, public information, real estate management, and hazardous materials management.

RTD has received a written feedback report detailing what the RMPEX examiners believe are the program’s strengths and opportunities for improvement.
