The selected contractor will provide all labor, equipment, technology, supervision, and technical expertise necessary to identify internal and surface rail defects before they develop into conditions that could compromise operational safety or infrastructure integrity.
Special instructions: Submit proposals here ONLY: https://charlottenc.bonfirehub.com/opportunities/255016
The contractor shall furnish all labor, supervision, equipment, materials, transportation, software, and technical expertise necessary to perform ultrasonic rail flaw detection services throughout the CATS Blue Line system. Services include inspecting approximately 40 miles of double-track mainline, yard tracks, storage tracks, siding tracks, grade crossings, interlockings, and special trackwork. The contractor must provide a road-to-rail capable ultrasonic inspection vehicle, real-time data acquisition and analysis equipment, and hand-held ultrasonic testing equipment. Testing shall be conducted annually during non-revenue service hours over four consecutive nights (12:30 AM – 4:00 AM daily) using a stop/start testing protocol. The contractor must mark confirmed defects with white or yellow paint, immediately notify the CATS Operations Control Center of defects requiring remedial action, and provide nightly deliverables and a comprehensive final report.
