Indiana TIM Mission and Goals
Indiana TIM Mission
Indiana TIM is committed to bringing stakeholders together to efficiently manage traffic incidents while advocating quick safe clearance and the latest training. Through outreach and local and statewide meetings, the Indiana TIM team will promote the three Cs of TIM - Communications, Coordination and Cooperation.
The goals that support the mission statement are described as:
- Communications - Enhancing the lines of communication between stakeholders, in addition to the traveling public to promote a more accurately and timely informed ecosystem.
- Coordination - Establishing a network of TIM Teams that will share their best practices to promote lifesaving safety and timely response and notification ideologies, amongst other best practices.
- Cooperation - Stimulating the sharing of resources in the form of multi-stakeholder TIM training opportunities, tabletop exercises, and other exercises that promote incident response cohesion.
"Incidents Managed, Roads Restored" is a tag line that most clearly defines the purpose of the Indiana TIM program and is applied to all published documentation coming from its initiatives.
The Indiana TIM program’s purpose is guided by a mission statement that embodies a clear purpose for the program, helping its stakeholders understand their goals and focus their collaborative efforts. The mission statement intends to align all TIM team actions with the program’s goals, fostering unity and consistency in line with the TIM National Unified Goals. It is a combination of the mission statement and its goals that define the core values to all participants, reinforcing the program’s identity and reputation.
