About this award
This federal contract award DTFR5310D00002|0051 was issued by the Federal Railroad Administration (FRA) to Ensco Inc., doing business as Enscohi, a leading technology company that provides engineering, science, and advanced technology solutions. The contract is for $99,729.00 and has a completion date of June 13, 2017.
The purpose of the contract is to develop an approach to quantify the energy transfer from a moving vehicle to the track, referred to as the Track Energy Metric (TEM). This metric has the potential to capture a broader range of information compared to traditional track quality indices, and could identify energy content due to specific conditions such as impacts, corrugation, track geometry deviations, and curvatures. This information could inform decisions on what track issues to address. The contract is not set aside for any specific program.
Ensco is the prime contractor on this award, and the company holds several significant Indefinite Delivery Vehicles (IDVs) with the FRA, including a $571 million single-award contract to manage and maintain the Transportation Technology Center facility in Pueblo, Colorado, and a $9.1 million multiple-award contract for Positive Train Control System Program support services.
Description
An approach that would quantify energy transfer from a moving vehicle to the track has a potential to become a metric that would characterize track in new way. Such a metric, referred to as the track energy metric (TEM), has the potential to capture information from a broader wavelength range when compared to traditional track quality indices (tqis) and could identify energy content due to specific conditions that could lead to an informed decision on what to address in the track. The conditions could include: * impacts (i.e. P1, P2 forces) * corrugation * track geometry deviations * curvatures
