Attachment a Statement of Work RFQ Number: 6100041691 OVERVIEW: the Pennsylvania Department of Transportation (Penndot) Is Respo
Attachment A Statement of Work RFQ Number: 6100041691 OVERVIEW: The Pennsylvania Department of Transportation (PennDOT) is responsible for the operating costs for the Amtrak Keystone and Pennsylvanian passenger rail services. The Keystone Service provides frequent higher speed passenger train service along the Amtrak part owned Keystone Corridor between the Harrisburg Transportation Center in Harrisburg, Pennsylvania and 30th Street Station in Philadelphia. Some trains continue on the Northeast Corridor and terminate at Pennsylvania Station in New York, and the Pennsylvanian runs between New York and Pittsburgh with stops in between. PennDOT aims to increase ridership on these services as increased revenue offsets the state subsidy for the rail services, which is estimated to be $14.9 million in the 2017 Federal fiscal year. In 2012, PennDOT and Amtrak partnered on PA Trips By Train (www.patripsbytrain.com), an initiative spotlighting events and destinations in communities along the service routes. PennDOT is shifting the campaign’s focus from excursion travelers to commuter travel (Keystone) with the goal of gaining more riders. BACKGROUND NEEDED TO COMPLETE WORK PLAN: In 2014, Amtrak conducted surveys of 402 Keystone customers and 400 Pennsylvanian customers. PennDOT is advising interested vendors to obtain the results of those surveys to better understand the project. Information from those surveys, including gender, age, income, and more is available only by executing a Non-Disclosure Agreement (NDA) with Amtrak. Interested contractors must fully complete and sign Attachment E, Amtrak Market Research Data Nondisclosure. The completed hard copy with an original ink signature must be submitted to Amtrak. Interested vendors wishing to have an original returned must submit two signed copies. -
