About this vehicle
The Federal Railroad Administration awarded a Master BPA for Federal Railroad Administration Engineering Services on August 14, 2019, with ordering closed as of August 22, 2024. The vehicle is no longer available for new task orders; the last call order was placed on August 1, 2024.
The vehicle served exclusively the FRA across 35 task orders totaling $60.8 million in combined potential value, with $60.4 million (99 percent) already obligated. Work focused on Monitoring and Technical Assistance Support (MTAS) — project oversight, technical assistance, and engineering support for FRA grantees and loan recipients across discretionary grant programs (SOGR, CRISI, RESTORE/ENHANCE, HSIPR), Amtrak capital projects, safety grant programs (SIIP, STEP), and IIJA-supplemental programs organized by regional delivery (Northeast, Midwest, South Central, and West regions). Pricing was predominantly labor-hour based, with occasional time-and-materials and firm fixed-price structures.
Competition was highly concentrated: Booz Allen Hamilton held 20 of 35 orders ($39.5 million potential value, 65 percent of the vehicle) and Transystems Corporation held 15 orders ($21.4 million, 35 percent). Ninety-one percent of orders carried no set-aside designation; the remaining three orders were unrestricted competitive. Call orders ranged from approximately $75,000 to $7.5 million in ceiling value, with typical durations of six to twelve months. The vehicle sustained steady ordering momentum across its five-year active span, averaging 6.2 orders per year, though activity declined from eight orders in 2020 to a low of four in 2023 before rebounding to eight in 2024.
Because ordering is closed and the vehicle has reached cash-out status at 99 percent obligation, pursuit is not viable.
