Assignment of Project Identification and Project Accounting Numbers
See document history
Purpose and Goal
To provide guidelines for the establishment of a uniform process to assign unique Project Identification Numbers to track project activities and the full project cost from concept to completion and also to provide for creation of Project Accounting Numbers for transmittal of Project data to the Office of Accounting.
- Project Number
- 1.1. The Project Identification Number (PI#) will be a unique seven-digit identifier assigned by
the Office of Programming. The assigned PI# will have no information imbedded within it
and will only be used to reference information about the project in the current BIGFILE
Database and in the future Transportation Information System (TIS) database.
- 1.2. The Project Accounting Number will be a unique ten-digit number with imbedded
intelligence, to cross-reference the project to the Project Identification Number. This will
allow tracking of project costs from inception to close out. It will consist of three
characters indicating the proposed project fund source at the time of project creation
followed by the first four-digits of the PI#, then two 00 followed by the last three-digits of
the PI# i.e. STP-011200(211). Once assigned the Project Accounting Number will not
change throughout the life of the project even though the project fund source may.
- 1.3. The Office of Programming will create and assign both the Project Accounting and the
Project Identification numbers through the use of an electronic number generator, which is
programmed to follow the rules regarding project identification outlined in 1.2 above.
- 1.4. The Office of Programming will maintain a reference table to link the Project Identification
Numbers with Project Accounting Numbers and make the table electronically available for
use by Department personnel.
- Uses of the Project Identification Number
- 2.1. The use of the Project Identification Number vs. the Project Accounting Number should not
be construed to be an "either/or" situation but will be used in conjunction with each other
as required. By entering either number into the Transportation Information System (TIS)
database users will be able to retrieve or review project information.
- Requirements of Use
- 3.1. Project Identification Number will be used to identify projects on documents and
correspondence requiring project identification. The Project Accounting Number
must be used in addition if the document involves budgets.
- 3.2. The Project Accounting Number must be used, in addition to the Project Identification
Number, on documents that involve budget activity including the following documents:
