Heavy Equipment and Transport Services

Amtrak is seeking a subcontractor to supply and operate heavy equipment including cranes, forklifts, flatbed trucks, and railcar movers to support the on-site handling and off-site transportation of heavy materials. The contract is focused on ensuring efficient and safe movement of cargo related to Amtrak’s operational requirements, with services expected to occur at unspecified locations where Amtrak’s infrastructure and logistics needs arise. The solicitation is categorized under NAICS code 484220, which corresponds to truck transportation of heavy and erratic cargo, indicating the specialized nature of the services required. The opportunity was posted on July 20, 2026, with responses due by August 3, 2026, and the procurement is structured as a subcontract rather than a direct government contract. All performance, equipment provision, and operational responsibilities must be fulfilled by the selected vendor, and while specific locations are not detailed, the work will directly support Amtrak’s logistics and maintenance activities. The contract is open to eligible subcontractors who can demonstrate capability to meet the technical and operational demands of transporting and handling heavy freight across varied and potentially challenging environments.
