About the company
Union Pacific Railroad Company, a for-profit corporate entity headquartered in Omaha, Nebraska, operates as a prime contractor on federal transportation and infrastructure projects, delivering railroad services, utility line relocation and maintenance, railroad crossing safety coordination, and right-of-way management support to civilian and defense agencies. The company competes in full-and-open procurements with no set-aside designations across its federal footprint.
Union Pacific's federal work centers on railroad corridor coordination with highway and infrastructure projects. Recent prime awards include a $99.6 thousand firm fixed-price purchase order from the Federal Highway Administration (awarded June 1, 2026) for the Kelso-Cima Road Encroachment Agreement supporting California Route 11 and Route 10 near Kelso, California, addressing railroad utility line and road encroachment coordination where the Union Pacific right-of-way intersects state highway corridors in the Mojave National Preserve; a $55.8 thousand FHWA purchase order (awarded January 1, 2026) for the Kelso-Cima Wye Crossing Agreement in Cima, California; and an $80 thousand FHWA purchase order (awarded September 5, 2023) for railroad services on the same California project. Union Pacific also holds an $8 thousand purchase order from the U.S. Army Reserve Command (awarded May 31, 2024) for railroad car delivery at Camp Roberts. Historical work includes railroad utility line relocation support under the Federal Lands Access Program in Pueblo, Colorado, and railroad maintenance and crossing fee agreements with the Forest Service in Shasta County.
The Tennessee Valley Authority leads Union Pacific's customer base with 40 awards, though dollar concentration splits across the General Services Administration Public Buildings Service Central Office (15 awards, $957 thousand combined potential value), the Department of the Army Test and Evaluation Command (32 awards, $382 thousand combined potential value), and the Federal Highway Administration (12 awards, $293 thousand combined potential value). These five customers account for 39% of award count but only 32% of combined potential value, indicating that TVA's high award count carries smaller per-order magnitudes while GSA's fewer awards represent larger individual obligations. Union Pacific places the majority of its work under GSA's Basic Ordering Agreement GS07B14137, which carries 114 task orders valued at $3.9 million combined potential value. The vendor's NAICS footprint reflects its core railroad business: Lessors of Nonresidential Buildings (116 awards), Line-Haul Railroads (52 awards), and Commercial Air, Rail, and Water Transportation Equipment Rental and Leasing (27 awards).
Union Pacific acts as a subcontractor on railroad crossing and bridge design work, delivering engineering services to HDR Engineering Inc. (awarded March 31, 2025) on an LVN railroad crossing task order, and serving as a sub-recipient on federal grant programs administered through the Colorado Department of Transportation and the California Department of Transportation on bridge preventative maintenance design and railroad crossing improvement projects awarded from 2024 through 2025. Activity remains sparse in recent years—two to five awards annually since 2021—with only one award completing within the next twenty-four months and therefore facing recompete.
