About this IDV

The Federal Railroad Administration awarded a single-award indefinite-delivery contract to Ensco Inc. on April 1, 2022, with a ceiling value of $571.68 million and ultimate completion date of September 30, 2032, to manage and maintain the Transportation Technology Center in Pueblo, Colorado. This is a Total Small Business set-aside.

Work is performed at the Transportation Technology Center in Pueblo, Colorado, a 52-square-mile facility comprising 34 buildings totaling 424,000 square feet, equipped with rail testing, research, and training infrastructure. The originating solicitation, posted May 1, 2020, sought a small business contractor to operate and maintain the facility in accordance with FRA standards while delivering research, training, and testing services through task orders under NAICS code 541715 (engineering services).

The contract was awarded following a multi-phased evaluation process with an award date of March 5, 2021 noted in the pre-solicitation phase. The period of performance runs from April 1, 2022 through September 30, 2032, with Option Year 1 exercised by modification extending through that final date.

Recent task-order activity under this IDIQ (issued through October 1, 2026) reflects sustained rail safety and facility operations work. Orders include a $4.68 million effort for development of rental measurement technologies (September 2026), a $1.35 million order for switches and crossings model development and validation through on-track testing and simulation (September 2026), a $950,000 order for remote control switching controls acquisition and human-factors safety research (June 2026), a $724,873 cost-plus-fixed-fee order to upgrade two non-functioning active grade crossing protection systems at TTC (August 2026), a $648,000 firm-fixed-price order to develop a safety training program for rail car configuration errors (July 2026), and a $500,000 cost-plus-fixed-fee order to expand the defect library of DOT-117 tank cars and evaluate industry capabilities in nondestructive evaluation methods (August 2026). Earlier orders address track repairs, rail integrity research, wayside detector test bed development, LiDAR point cloud scans at grade crossings, high-speed rail equipment modeling, fire suppression technology evaluation, and continuous welded rail management. The Federal Transit Administration and Transportation Security Administration have also issued orders under this vehicle for related transportation research and training support.
