“…The interplay between ICT in the planning and organization of construction work and firm performance can be considered in a production cost framework (see Rhodes and Westbrook, 1986;Commander et al, 2011). A well-organized production process will result in higher output levels for given input, or lower input levels for a given output.…”

By 1970, regulation of railroads under the Interstate Commerce Act of 1887 had resulted in an industry that was in financial ruin and unresponsive to changes in the marketplace. Subsequent legislation, which culminated in the Staggers Rail Act of 1980, was intended to resurrect the industry and did so. A Congressionally-mandated National Academy of Sciences study examined trends in the industry and the current regulatory regime and offered a number of recommendations, arguing that modernization can yield substantial benefits by modernizing what has become an outdated and ineffective system. This paper summaries some of the main findings of that study.
