READER'S
GUIDE
CROL is posted
each business day and includes notices of proposed New
York City procurement actions, contract awards, and
other procurement-related information. Solicitation
notices for most procurements valued at or above $100,000
for information technology and for construction and
construction-related services, above $50,000 for other
services, and above $25,000 for other goods are published
for at least one day. Other types of procurements, such
as sole source, require notice in The City Record for
five consecutive days. Unless otherwise specified, the
agencies and offices listed are open for business Mondays
through Fridays, from 9:00 a.m. - 5:00 p.m., except
legal holidays.
HOW
TO READ PROCUREMENT NOTICES
Procurement
Notices in CROL are arranged by types of goods or services
to be purchased. Notices appear from the date they are
posted (normally the day before publication in the printed
City Record) until the date the bid/proposal is due.
The name of the agency seeking goods or services is
listed as well as necessary contact information. The
specific contact is listed for each solicitation. You
may also consult the
MOC/ACCO list from this site for additional contacts.
The notices include many abbreviations and acronyms
which are defined on the abbreviations
link on our home page.
SELLING
TO NYC
NYC.GOV includes
information about the many resources available for vendors
who want to do business with the City of New York. Visit
the Selling
to New York City for bidder list applications; business
opportunity programs; prequalified lists; Procurement
Policy Board Rules as well as the non-Mayoral agencies
that are not subject to those rules; prompt payment;
the public access center and the vendor information
manual.
NOTICE
TO ALL NEW YORK CITY CONTRACTORS
New York City's "Burma Law" (Local Law No. 33 of 1997)
No Longer to be Enforced. In light of the United States
Supreme Court's decision in Crosby v. National
Foreign Trade Council, 530 U.S. 363 (2000),
the City has determined that New York City's Local Law
No. 33 of 1997 (codified in Administrative Code Section
6-115 and Charter Section 1524), which restricts City
business with banks and companies doing business in
Burma, is unconstitutional. This is to advise, therefore,
that the language relating to Burma contained in existing
New York City contracts may not be enforced.
VENDOR
ENROLLMENT APPLICATION
New York
City procures approximately $7 billion worth of goods,
services, construction and construction-related services
every year. The NYC Procurement Policy Board Rules require
that agencies primarily solicit from established mailing
lists called bidder/proposer lists. To register for
these lists--free of charge--prospective suppliers should
fill out and submit the NYC-FMS Vendor Enrollment application.
- Online
at NYC.gov/selltonyc
- To request
a hardcopy application, call the Vendor Enrollment
Center
at 212-857-1680.
Attention
Existing Suppliers:
Even if you already do business with NYC agencies, be
sure to fill out an application. We are switching over
to citywide, centralized Bidders Lists instead of the
agency-specific lists previously used to issue notices
about upcoming contract opportunities. To continue receiving
notices of New York City contract opportunities you
must fill out and submit a NYC-FMS Vendor Enrollment
application.
If you are uncertain whether you have already submitted
an application, call us at 212-857-1680.
CONSTRUCTION SERVICES OR CONSTRUCTION RELATED SERVICES
The City of New York is committed to achieving excellence in
the design and construction of its capital program, and building on the
tradition of innovation in architecture and engineering that has contributed
to the City's prestige as a global destination.
PREQUALIFIED
LIST
New York
City procurement policy permits agencies to develop
and solicit from prequalified lists of vendors, under
prescribed circumstance. When it is decided by an agency
to develop a prequalified list, criteria for prequalification
must be clearly explained in the solicitation and notice
of the opportunity to prequalify for that solicitation
must be published in at least five issues of the CR.
Information and qualification questionnaires for inclusion
on such list may be obtained directly from the Agency
Chief Contracting Officer at each agency, (see Vendor
Information Manual). A completed qualification Questioner
may be submitted to the Chief Contracting Officer at
any time, unless otherwise indicated and action (approval
or denial) shall be taken by the agency within 90 days
from the date of submission. Any denial or revocation
of prequalified status can be appealed to the Office
of Administrative Trials and Hearing (OATH) Section
3-11 of the Procurement Policy Board Rules describes
the criteria for the general use of prequalified lists.
