About this award

The Federal Railroad Administration awarded a $214,630.42 delivery order to Sharma & Associates Inc., a minority-owned small disadvantaged business based in Hinsdale, Illinois, to develop a comprehensive blueprint and bill of materials for efficient Locomotive Emissions Measurement Systems (LEMS). The contract, awarded September 18, 2012, with an ultimate completion date of March 21, 2014, requires the contractor to integrate particulate matter collection system components and processes into the LEMS bill of materials and instructions. Additionally, the work includes Environmental Protection Agency analysis of the complete system and guidance on obtaining system certification to support Tier 4 regulation implementation and enforcement.

This delivery order was executed under a cost-plus-fixed-fee contract structure with no socioeconomic set-aside designation. Sharma & Associates, which has established itself as a technically sophisticated engineering firm serving the FRA since its 2004 registration in SAM.gov, brings relevant expertise in railway mechanical and infrastructure engineering, advanced technical research, and transportation safety development. The project directly supports the FRA's locomotive emissions testing program and addresses critical industry needs as Tier 4 emissions regulations approach full implementation across the railroad sector.
