About this opportunity
The Massachusetts Department of Transportation Rail and Transit Division is issuing a Request for Information on construction of the Hyannis Engine House facility, with responses due August 25, 2026 by 4:00 p.m. This is an informational solicitation only and does not obligate the Commonwealth to issue a subsequent solicitation or contract.
The scope is a fully enclosed 11,400 gross square feet rail maintenance facility with two tracks in Hyannis, Massachusetts, to be operated by Mass Coastal Railroad for fleet maintenance. RTD owns the land and existing tracks where the facility will be constructed. Respondents must examine the 60% design package and submit a cost estimate using the provided format and methodology.
RTD seeks industry input on cost estimates, scheduling recommendations, and technical insights. Specific questions address construction schedule optimization, long lead items, and the adequacy of FAA-approved temporary work areas (50 feet above existing ground elevation for general work and 90 feet for crane operations). Responses should address these technical and logistical considerations to inform development of a potential future solicitation.
Questions must be submitted through COMMBUYS by August 14, 2026 by 4:00 p.m., with RTD responses provided electronically by August 18, 2026. No informational session or site visit is scheduled. All RFI responses will be submitted electronically through COMMBUYS and will become public records under Massachusetts law. RTD reserves the right to request additional information, formal presentations, or further clarification from respondents. Respondents bear all costs of preparing responses, and submission of an RFI response will confer no advantage or disadvantage in any future competitive solicitation.
