COMPETITIVE CONTRACT FOR RAIL PARTS AND SERVICES

Board of County Commissioners · 2026-06-02 · resolution

Miami-Dade County Board of County Commissioners adopted a resolution ratifying a contract with Hitachi Rail STS USA for the purchase and overhaul of rail vehicle trucks. The contract, valued at $6,729,260.00, is for components needed to replace parts damaged in accidents and derailments, and to complete six-year overhauls for the Department of Transportation and Public Works (DTPW). The procurement process involved an Invitation to Quote (ITQ) under a prequalification pool, resulting in one bid due to OEM requirements and system compatibility. Commissioner Bermudez expressed concern about the significant delay in presenting the contract for ratification.
