About this award
The National Institute of Standards and Technology awarded a $1.26 million firm fixed-price definitive contract to the Washington Metropolitan Area Transit Authority (WMATA) on January 15, 2021, for administration of the Federal Workforce Transportation Subsidy Program, specifically providing Metro cards and SmartBenefits transit passes to NIST staff. The contract, which extends through January 31, 2026, carries no set-aside designation and is being performed in Washington, DC 20024. WMATA, the region's primary multimodal transit authority, serves as the prime contractor with no identified subcontractors, leveraging its established expertise in federal employee transit benefits administration and SmartTrip fare card distribution across the National Capital Region.
This award is representative of WMATA's extensive federal contract portfolio supporting workforce transportation initiatives across civilian agencies. As the operator of the second-largest rapid transit rail system and sixth-largest bus network in the United States, WMATA has established itself as the specialized provider for federal transit subsidy programs, administering comparable SmartBenefits contracts for numerous federal agencies including the Departments of Treasury, Customs and Border Protection, and the Secret Service, with contract values ranging from modest purchase orders to agreements exceeding $50 million. The NIST contract supports the agency's commitment to providing commuter benefits that enhance workforce mobility and reduce transportation barriers for federal employees in the Washington metropolitan area.
