Project Management Oversight Services I

The Federal Transit Administration awarded a Master IDIQ for project management oversight services to support FTA's regulatory compliance and grantee monitoring of select capital transit projects on August 4, 2004, with ordering closed as of May 23, 2013.

This vehicle is no longer active. The last task order was issued on April 29, 2008, nearly eighteen years ago. The FTA has since moved to Project Management Oversight Services II, awarded July 29, 2009, which supersedes this contract. Ordering activity concentrated in the vehicle's first four years: nine orders in 2004, twelve in 2005, seven in 2006, seven in 2007, and one final order in 2008. Of the combined potential value of $58.1 million across 36 task orders, $48.2 million (83 percent) has been obligated.

Scope centers on continuous review and evaluation of grantee processes and FTA compliance activities. Task orders span project management oversight for specific capital projects, programmatic support services (quality management systems, white papers, cost models, status reporting), and technical reviews of grantee capacity. Recent task orders show engagement on named projects including Dallas LRT, Miami transit, Pittsburgh, Charlotte, and Houston systems, as well as regional oversight for Metro North and Connecticut major capital projects.

Competition was concentrated among six primes. David Evans And Associates, Inc. dominated by potential value with six orders worth $21.1 million combined; the unnamed vendor R4Y8NU7CMGL7 held five orders valued at $10.3 million. PGH Wong Engineering, Inc. and KJM & Associates each held nine orders but at lower combined values of $9.2 million and $5.7 million respectively. Shaw Infrastructure Incorporated captured four orders worth $8 million. The top five primes accounted for 92–94 percent of activity by order count and potential value.

All task orders were placed by the Federal Transit Administration. Nearly all orders carried no set-aside restriction; only one of 36 orders was reserved for small business. Task order values ranged from $19,600 to $14.9 million, with most pricing structured as Cost Plus Fixed Fee. Completion dates extended into 2013 for the final programmatic task orders, though active work ended years earlier.

The Federal Transit Administration (FTA) has awarded a Master IDIQ for project management oversight (PMO) support services for select capital projects. FTA defines oversight as a continuous review and evaluation of grantee and FTA processes to ensure compliance with statutory, administrative, and regulatory requirements.
