This report discusses the need for better management by the Washington Metropolitan Area Transit Authority to ensure successful railcar procurement. It also recommends stronger procurement oversight by the Urban Mass Transportation Administration to ensure that federal funds are effectively used. This review was made because of the continuing public and congressional interest in the system and the delays that have occurred in delivery of the railcars.
