The Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) is conducting a market survey to identify potential sources for an anticipated contract for Railroad Credit Assessment and Portfolio Management (RCAPM) System and Support for the Railroad Rehabilitation and Improvement Financing (RRIF) Program and the availability and capability of qualified sources to perform the work. The FHWA Office of Acquisition and Grants Management intends to make an award (firm fixed price) to accomplish the work described herein. The purpose for this Sources Sought is to conduct market research to identify potential offerors having an interest in, and the resources to accomplish the work. Consideration will be given to identifying small business concerns, including the sub-categories of SDVOSB, HUBZone, 8(a), SDB and woman-owned. The result of this market research will contribute to determining the method of procurement. This document contains a draft scope of work. Your firm’s response regarding your firm’s experience and capabilities will be used to determine the availability of potential businesses, both large and small, and their capabilities in meeting the Government’s requirement. PARTICIPATION IN THE MARKET RESEARCH IN NO WAY INFLUENCES THE SOURCE SELECTION FOR THESE SERVICES.
