Description
The New York City Housing Authority (NYCHA), by issuing this RFP, seeks proposals (“Proposals”) from firms (the “Proposers”) to provide NYCHA with EPACT coordinator services to, among other services, facilitate the allocation of the 179D Deduction to the Designers and to facilitate agreements between NYCHA and the Designers pursuant to which NYCHA will receive either (a) a monetary portion from the Designers of the 179D Deduction payment allocated to the Designers (the “NYCHA 179D Deduction Payment”) or (b) a project cost reduction from the Designers as a result of the allocation of the 179D Deduction (the “NYCHA Project Cost Reduction”).

The term (“Term”) of the awarded Agreement shall be three years (the “Initial Term”), with up to two additional one-year optional renewal periods (each a “Renewal Period”), exercisable at NYCHA’s sole discretion by written notice to the Consultant. The Consultant’s sole compensation of the Services to be performed during the Term and, if applicable, the Renewal Period(s) shall be Consultant’s fixed percentage (the “Fixed Percentage”) of either the NYCHA 179D Deduction Payments or NYCHA Project Cost Reductions, as the case may be, that are directly secured as a result of the Consultant’s performance of the Services, with such Fixed Percentage set forth in the Consultant’s Cost Proposal (defined herein), subject to any modifications thereto prior to the execution of the Agreement by and between NYCHA and the Consultant.
