"INDUSTRY DAYS" ARE COMING!
The Southern California Regional Rail Authority (SCRRA) is preparing an RFP to obtain a single firm that will operate and maintain the SCRRA rail system, called Metrolink. The selected firm will be responsible for operation and maintenance of the entire Metrolink fleet, maintenance of facilities, material acquisition and management, and other functions associated with operating and maintaining the nation’s third largest commuter rail system.
The DBE goal for the project has not yet been established but will be included in the final RFP.
SCRRA is hosting a two-day event to solicit industry input regarding a draft of the RFP. The event will take place on Friday, February 15th and Saturday, February 16th.
The first day will consist of dialogues and presentations and opportunities for individual firms to meet with SCRRA staff at 2700 Melbourne Avenue, Pomona, CA 91767. Primes and subcontractors are encouraged to take the opportunity to network.
The second day will consist of visits to SCRRA facilities. SCRRA will provide transportation from the Pomona North Metrolink Station located at 205 Santa Fe Street, Pomona, CA 91767.
