Procurement Contract/Change Order
RECOMMENDATION:
Approve and authorize Executive Director to execute a procurement contract and associated disbursements with Stadler US in the amount of $129,300,194 for the base order of 20 light rail vehicles. Exercise of any additional options will require future board approval.
BACKGROUND:
UTA’s SD100 and SD160 light rail vehicles are nearing the end of their useful life. Because of this, UTA applied for a Federal Transit Administration (FTA) rail vehicle replacement grant. In May of 2023, the FTA selected UTA for a $60,000,000 light rail vehicle replacement grant.
UTA conducted industry workshops to collaborate with potential vendors. In December 2023, UTA released an RFP requesting proposals to procure new light rail vehicles.
DISCUSSION:
UTA staff is requesting approval of a light rail vehicle procurement contract with Stadler US, totaling $129,300,194. This request involves the procurement of the base order of 20 low floor light rail vehicles to replace 20 SD100 high floor light rail vehicles.
The light rail vehicles are part of the 2024-2028 capital plan.
UTA had included 60 options for additional vehicles for future procurements.
