FTA selects Hill International to continue PMO Services

Nov. 20, 2019
Hill International will monitor FTA projects for regulation compliance, timeliness, budget and project plans and specifications.

The Federal Transit Administration (FTA) has selected Hill International to continue to provide project management oversight (PMO) services on major transit capital projects.

The five-year IDIQ contract has an estimated anticipated dollar value for Hill and its subcontractors of no more than $35 million.

Each year, the FTA provides nearly $12 billion in financial assistance to help communities build, improve, maintain and operate public transportation systems. As PMO consultant, Hill supplements the FTA's technical staff in assessing project sponsors’ project management and technical capacities and capabilities to successfully implement FTA-funded programs.

Hill monitors the projects to determine whether project sponsors are in compliance with FTA’s regulations, and if they are progressing on time, within budget and in accordance with the sponsors’ approved plans and specifications. Hill also provides technical assistance to help ensure the success of the projects. Hill has been providing PMO services to the FTA continuously for over three decades.

“We are honored to continue our PMO services for the FTA,” said Michael Radbill, Hill International vice president. “The FTA is crucial in helping to provide federal aid and technological assistance to public transportation projects, and we are proud to have supported their work for decades. These task order projects are another step towards a successful future for public transportation.”
