The Product and Service Code (PSC) AS11 encompasses Transportation Research and Development Services, specifically focusing on surface transportation, public transit, and rail basic research. This category covers a wide range of technical and scientific services related to advancing transportation infrastructure, safety technologies, and operational efficiency. The research spans multiple disciplines, including track inspection, vehicle safety systems, transportation modeling, and human factors in transportation.

The federal contract awards in this PSC category predominantly involve the Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) and Federal Railroad Administration (FRA), with contract values ranging from approximately $50,000 to $4.1 million. Frequently awarded entities include Noblis, Inc., Ensco Inc., ICF Incorporated, L.L.C., and various academic institutions such as the University of Illinois, Virginia Tech, and Kansas State University. The contracts are typically delivered through indefinite delivery/indefinite quantity (IDIQ) vehicles, multiple award schedules, and blanket purchase agreements. Most awards are not set aside for specific business types and focus on research and technical support services across transportation domains, with performance locations primarily in Virginia, Colorado, and other states with significant transportation research facilities.

The sole federal contract opportunity in this dataset is a solicitation by Brookhaven National Laboratory for bus and transportation services. The opportunity seeks a contractor to provide school bus transportation and drivers for tours and special events, with requirements including a minimum of 5 years of commercial bus service experience, ADA-accessible vehicle options, and compliance with specific safety standards. The solicitation is not set aside for any specific business category and is open to full and open competition, with services to be performed in Upton, New York, supporting the laboratory's Guest Services Division.
