Added: Sep 30, 2013 8:58 pm The Federal Transit Administration (FTA) is requesting proposals (RFP attached) from qualified firms or organizations to provide project management oversight (PMO) support services for select capital projects under an indefinite delivery indefinite quantity (IDIQ) contract.

This activity begins early in project implementation, usually at the time of preliminary engineering. PMO contractors monitor the large caseload of projects, following guidelines established by FTA. PMO contractors serve to supplement the FTA technical staff to evaluate grantee project management and technical capacity and capability to successfully implement these major transit projects. PMO contractors also monitor the projects to determine whether the projects are progressing on time, within budget, and in accordance with approved grantee plans and specifications. Other activities are also involved, such as design constructability, change order reviews, and value engineering submittals. The projects to be monitored vary in size from $25,000,000 to over $10,000,000,000. This announcement is open to all businesses regardless of size.
