Capitol Government Contract Specialists (Capitol GCS) was formed in 2011 with its headquarters in Irvine CA. Since our inception we have provided a variety of expert consulting services to the public transit sector.
These services have been centered on three specific areas:
Program Management for Rolling Stock Acquisition and Overhaul
Capitol GCS provides Program Management Oversight services to transit agencies across the country in support of their bus and rail vehicle projects. By leveraging our staff of senior transit industry veterans, we ensure that acquisition and overhaul projects come in on time, on budget, and meet the technical specification requirements.
Transit Operations
Our team of former senior transit agency executives can provide expertise in any area of agency operations. This includes, transportation master plan development, grant application development, acquisition planning, financial system management, bus / rail operations, rolling stock maintenance planning, and Zero Emission Bus (ZEB) Implementation Plan development.
Oversight Services
Capitol GCS has the experienced staff to ensure compliance with the requirements that accompany Federal Transit Agency (FTA) funding. We provide procurement systems reviews, financial capacity assessments, and technical oversight services to ensure transit agencies meet their funding requirements.
While Capitol GCS is a small business, we have a unique asset that provides us with the transit experience of a far larger corporation – the Capitol GCS Transit Executive Bench. This is a group of senior transit industry executives who have brought their extensive experience and industry contacts to the Capitol GCS team. These individuals are all recently retired executives and include Senior Managers, Directors, General Managers, and CEOs. These individuals span all facets of major transit agency management, including Operations, Maintenance, Planning, Finance, and Procurement.
From a socio-economic subcontracting standpoint, Capitol GCS is a woman owned business both SBE and DBE certified in over 20 states. In addition, we are HUBZone certified on the federal level by the U.S. Small Business Administration.
Based on our capabilities and certifications, Capitol GCS can provide expert transit industry consulting on an as needed basis, DBE / Woman Owned / HUBZone certified, across the country, on contracts at either the metropolitan, state, or federal level.
