Description
Requesting proposals from experienced, professional operators of dockage facilities to improve, operate (manage and maintain), and market DockNYC, NYCEDC’s public berth management program of specific Berthing Sites. DockNYC was first implemented in 2013 to simplify and streamline the City’s existing waterfront permitting process in order to activate underutilized City-owned piers and marinas. The DockNYC program is an element of the Port of NYC (“PortNYC”), run by NYCEDC since it grew out of NYC’s Ports and Trade department. Port NYC facilities include City-owned marine cargo terminals, rail facilities, cruise terminals, ferry landings, DockNYC sites, and aviation facilities within New York City’s five boroughs.
NYCEDC plans to select a consultant on the basis of factors stated in the RFP which include, but are not limited to: the general quality of the proposal, berthing operations and management experience of proposed team, quality of maintenance and capital improvement plans, quality of maritime community support and funding plan, and the proposed fee.
It is the policy of NYCEDC to comply with all federal, state and City laws and regulations which prohibit unlawful discrimination because of race, creed, color, national origin, sex, age, disability, marital status and other protected category and to take affirmative action in working with contracting parties to ensure certified Minority and Women-owned Business Enterprises (MWBEs) share in the economic opportunities generated by NYCEDC’s projects and initiatives.
This project has Minority and Women Owned Business Enterprise (“M/WBE”) participation goals, and all respondents will be required to submit a M/WBE Narrative Form with their response.

For the list of companies who have been certified with the New York City Department of Small Business Services as M/WBE, please go to the www.nyc.gov/buycertified.
NYCEDC established the Kick Start Loan programs for Minority, Women and Disadvantaged Business Enterprise (M/W/DBE) interested in working on public projects. Kick Start Loans facilitates financing for short-term mobilization needs such as insurance, payroll, supplies and equipment. Bidders, sub-contractors and sub-consultants are strongly encouraged to visit the NYCEDC website at www.nycedc.com/opportunitymwdbe to learn more about the program.
