About this award
This is a sole-source, firm-fixed-price contract awarded by the U.S. Department of Transportation's Federal Railroad Administration (FRA) to Jensen Hughes Inc., a global engineering and consulting firm, for the continuation of "Fire Safety Phase II Research." The 18-month, $1,887,821.00 contract requires Jensen Hughes to finalize fire dynamics modeling and conduct tests to provide technical justification for proposed heat release rate performance test criteria as an alternative acceptance parameter for passenger rail fire safety standards. This research builds upon prior work performed by Jensen Hughes under a Volpe Center contract, which investigated the feasibility of using heat release rate criteria to evaluate fire performance of materials and review existing industry standards. The FRA intends to present the research results to the National Fire Protection Association 130 Committee on Fire Protection for Guided Railway in support of updating fire safety standards. This contract does not carry a set-aside designation.
