About this opportunity
The Federal Transit Administration, a civilian agency within the Department of Transportation, is conducting market research on vendors capable of providing Knowledge Transfer and Information Dissemination (KTID) support services, with responses due September 11, 2026. This is a sources-sought notice; no contract award will be made based on responses submitted.
The FTA seeks contractor support to facilitate deployment, implementation, and information dissemination of FTA research and technology products under the Public Transportation Innovation Program (49 U.S. Code 5312). The KTID program requires design, implementation, and management of a comprehensive initiative addressing nine primary objectives: developing a KTID plan with stakeholder engagement strategies and barrier identification; producing accessible, Section 508-compliant research reports and materials; creating an inventory of active FTA research programs; building a searchable online FTA Research Library; tracking patents and trademarks from FTA-funded research; creating outreach materials and dissemination tools; executing the KTID plan with deployment facilitation; and conducting data collection, analysis, and reporting. All materials must comply with DOT Plain Language standards, Section 508 accessibility requirements, and federal data management and cybersecurity guidelines.
The anticipated contract structure uses Firm-Fixed Price and Labor Hour pricing with a one 12-month base period and four optional 12-month extension periods for a potential five-year performance period. Deliverables include data management plans, quarterly progress reports, rapid-response briefs, annual program impact summaries, and training materials. Performance will be assessed on timely submission (95% on-schedule target), quality requiring no more than one revision (90% standard), rapid-response completion within 30 days (100% standard), and stakeholder engagement completion per schedule (100% standard).
Interested vendors must submit technical capability statement packages not exceeding 15 typed pages addressing past performance within the last three years, corporate experience with comparable work, and labor categories utilized. Submit to Alveatta Palmer at Alveatta.Palmer.ctr@dot.gov with a copy to Crystal Zorich at crystal.zorich@dot.gov by 12:00 noon Eastern Standard Time on September 11, 2026.
