Good morning everyone,
This is Dan, Joel's Online Manager. We received notification from UPRR that they are releasing their RFP. They provided us with the following insight: -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
There are 188 UPRR locations in 24 US states
Volumes: 2.5 Million Trips annually
73 Million Miles annually
Total business opportunity valued at $110-130M+ annually
While the RFP Bid Sheet supports traditional bidding for all scope elements, UPRR wants to challenge suppliers to demonstrate their true understanding- and capability of improving vehicle utilization and driving network efficiencies.
Participating in the RFP process constitutes a real opportunity for suppliers to begin, strengthen and/or grow their business relationship with UPRR.
For RFP registration please contact us ASAP for secure website and login credentials.
Please find an overview of key process milestones. Not responding or responding late will disqualify your company from the RFP process.

UPRR provided us with an exclusive and secure website, username, and password for you to formally register. Again, please contact us ASAP and we will share that information with you. That needs to be done today so please contact us ASAP!
