NIGP 94061: Rail Car Maintenance and Repair

NIGP 94061 Rail Car Maintenance And Repair, an Item code, encompasses maintenance, repairs, and inspections of rail infrastructure owned or operated by state and local transit and port authorities. State and local governments procure track inspection services, scheduled maintenance, emergency repairs, brake system installation and maintenance, rail clamps, and component replacement for rail spurs, container gantry cranes, and associated rail systems. The work spans inspection protocols, preventive maintenance programs, corrective repairs, and specialized component supply and installation. Issuing bodies include city transportation departments, county port authorities, and transit-related municipal agencies. Recent opportunities show demand from both municipal rail operators managing branch-line infrastructure and port authorities maintaining crane rail systems critical to container handling operations.

The City of Dallas and Broward County represent the most recent activity in this code. Dallas issued an RFP (Solicitation BTZ2600031254, due November 13, 2026) to establish a thirty-six-month Indefinite Delivery/Indefinite Quantity price agreement for track inspections and maintenance and repairs of railroad spur track, with services ordered on an as-needed basis. Broward County issued an RFI (Solicitation BLD6232026F12, closed July 1, 2026) to contest a proposed sole-source designation for Bubenzer brakes and rail clamps installation, parts, and maintenance for all container gantry cranes at Port Everglades, seeking evidence of comparable suppliers or alternative commodities that would meet holding, emergency stopping, and crane-immobilization requirements. Texas and Florida represent the documented geographic centers of recent procurement activity under this code.
