About the company

Tri-County Metropolitan Transportation District Of Oregon, doing business as Trimet, is a U.S. local government transit authority that receives federal grant funding and sells transit pass services to federal agencies as a prime recipient and occasional subrecipient. Trimet is a public sector entity based in Portland, Oregon, classified under primary NAICS 488210 (Mixed Mode Transit Systems) and competes in full-and-open federal procurements without set-aside designations.

Trimet's federal footprint centers almost entirely on grant receipts rather than federal contracts. The Federal Transit Administration is the dominant funder, accounting for 240 awards (58% of the 410 total recent awards) and anchoring Trimet's work in preventive maintenance for bus and rail fleets, capital construction, and vehicle procurement. Representative grant work includes $103.275 million under the State of Good Repair Grants Program (CFDA 20.525) awarded January 29, 2026, for rail and bus preventive maintenance activities performed by Trimet staff and third-party contractors; $67.592 million under the Federal Transit Formula Grants program (CFDA 20.507) awarded June 9, 2026, for bus preventive maintenance; and $39 million under the Federal Transit Formula Grants program (CFDA 20.507) awarded May 2, 2025, for purchase of fourteen articulated hydrogen fuel cell electric buses and workforce training. Trimet also holds smaller federal contracts for transit pass services: the Bureau of Land Management Oregon-Washington awarded multiple purchase orders for annual universal transit passes ($10,465.20 awarded July 27, 2026; $18,197.25 awarded August 20, 2025), and the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission awarded multiple BPA calls for transit subsidy services ($2,552 awarded September 1, 2024; $2,492.80 awarded September 1, 2023).

Customer concentration is extreme. The Federal Transit Administration accounts for approximately 240 of 410 awards (58%), with the Department of Transportation Immediate Office of the Secretary Transportation holding six awards worth $6.7 million combined potential value in a separate contract vehicle (DTOS5911D00524, five task orders). The Department of the Interior Bureau of Land Management Oregon-Washington placed 19 small transit-pass purchase orders. The Department of Energy Federal Energy Regulatory Commission placed 17 awards for transit subsidies. Combined, the top five funding agencies account for 73% of all awards, but FTA's dominance is so pronounced that concentration by agency count and by dollar value align sharply—FTA both places the most awards and anchors the largest dollars.

Trimet acts as prime on 95% of its federal awards (388 awards) and as subrecipient on 5% (22 awards). Sub-award work includes vaccine-related costs and force account labor expense submissions under prime grants from the Oregon Military Department. Trimet does not intend to subaward most of its FTA grant funds, though it passed through FY 2024 Section 5310 funding for elderly and persons with disabilities paratransit services to subrecipients Ride Connection and Clackamas County. Activity has remained relatively flat across the past five years—2022 saw 21 awards, declining to 9 awards in 2026 (year-to-date)—and only 15 awards face completion in the next twenty-four months, posing minimal recompete cliff exposure.

Trimet's federal work concentrates on capital and maintenance investments in Portland-area transit infrastructure and operations. The vendor does not serve as a contractor on the major transit-focused GWACs or IDIQs; instead, it receives formula grants and competitive project grants directly from FTA to fund its own agency operations. Federal agencies purchase transit services and pass media from Trimet as a local provider, not as a systems integrator or external contractor. Place of performance is Oregon, with administrative and operational centers in Portland.
