Notice Details

Recognizing the importance of the industrial sector to New York City’s economy, the City created a program to deliver services to Industrial Businesses operating in the City’s Industrial Business Zones (“IBZs”). Since inception in October 2006, the program has served thousands of Industrial Businesses. The NYC Department of Small Business Services ("Agency") will be extending the existing services for Industrial Business Services Provider (IBSP) in the borough of Staten Island. These services will reinforce the City’s efforts to support the industrial and manufacturing sector by responding to current and evolving needs while providing the conditions and resources to enable the sector to further grow and advance. 

The negotiated acquisition extension will allow the agency adequate time to release a new solicitation for this program and enable the current IBSP provider to continue to deliver a suite of business services not limited to boro-wide technical consultant services, accessing incentive programs, providing information regarding City, State and Federal programs, financing and accessing capital, navigating government, and identifying employee and workforce services. In addition to increasing awareness and access to available City programs. This is all part of the agency's and city's economic development mission.
