end
AGENDA ITEM TYPE:
Procurement Contract/Change Order
RECOMMENDATION:
Approve and authorize the Executive Director to execute Task Order 25-005 and associated disbursements with Rocky Mountain Systems Services in the amount of $343,272 to remove station exempt signals along the TRAX North/South mainline alignment.
BACKGROUND:
UTA executed contract 24-03814VW with Rocky Mountain Systems Services (RMSS) for on-call systems maintenance. The term of this contract is for three years with two one-year term options. RMSS was selected based on best value procurement methodology. The UTA Board of Trustees approved the contract on June 12, 2024, and it was fully executed on June 14, 2024. The original contract value is not-to-exceed $40,000,000 at $8,000,000 per year.
Typical task orders under this contract include:
• Support for rail and maintenance of way systems
• Upgrades, repairs, analysis, and training of train control systems
• Repair, maintenance, and training of overhead contact systems and traction power substations
DISCUSSION:
Under Task Order 25-005, Rocky Mountain Systems Services will remove 16 station exempt signals along the TRAX North/South mainline alignment. These signals are no longer needed since UTA installed freight timers that adjust the crossing mode to provide warning time for freight trains. This task also includes updates to the train control logic to remove the XLOK software. Completion of this work is expected in September of 2025.
