SEPTA's current Capital Budget encompasses over $13 billion in projects spanning the next 12 years, with anticipated contracting opportunities including engineering design, construction management and construction inspection, and design-build and design-bid-build construction contracts. Attendees must pre-register online via the provided Teams registration link and arrive 15 minutes early for security check-in with a photo ID; the forum will be conducted in-person only despite using Teams for registration tracking purposes. The presentation will include time for questions and feedback, with Michael Piselli, Manager of Contract Administration, serving as the point of contact at mpiselli@septa.org or 215-580-8364.

SEPTA has committed to maximizing the participation of certified Disadvantaged Business Enterprise (DBE) firms throughout every phase of these procurements. The forum is designed to provide preliminary details about the large and technically diverse projects scheduled for procurement under the capital program. No specific pricing terms, funding sources, or incumbent information is provided in this announcement, as the document serves solely as an invitation to the preliminary industry outreach event.
