Chicago Transit Authority releases plan for contracting opportunities
advertisement
The Chicago Transit Authority (CTA) has published its first buying plan, which previews the purchases of services, equipment and commodities that the agency anticipates during the next 18 months.
The plan is intended to assist vendors who are considering doing business with the agency, CTA officials said in a prepared statement.
“The goal of this plan is to increase the vendor pool by making it easy and convenient for potential bidders to get a full picture of upcoming contracting opportunities,” said CTA President Forrest Claypool.
The plan includes opportunities for the upcoming Red Line reconstruction project, which calls for rebuilding the Dan Ryan branch of CTA’s busiest rail line in 2013.
