NJ Transit’s Woods Dies

Thomas J. (Tom) Woods, 55, chief of procurement for New Jersey Transit Corporation (NJ Transit), died July 7 at his home in Tinton Falls, NJ.

After beginning his career as an expeditor for an engineering firm specializing in nuclear construction, Woods joined the Procurement Department of NJ Transit in 1987. He held several senior management positions during his 25-year career with the agency. Woods managed NJ Transit’s first public-private partnership Design-Build-Operate-Maintain contract, which resulted in the Hudson-Bergen Light Rail System, then headed up light rail operations, contracted services, real estate, and advertising before returning to procurement as its chief.

He was a member of the APTA Procurement Steering Committee.
