Notice Details

New York City Economic Development Corporation (NYCEDC), acting on behalf of New York City Mayor’s Office of Minority & Women Business Enterprises (OM/WBE) is seeking a qualified vendor to deliver insurance analysis consulting services. The Consultant will conduct a study of (a) the City of New York’s current approach to insurance and (b) opportunities to implement programs and procedures to allow the City to use owner-controlled insurance or contractor-controlled insurance programs on public works projects.

CCMP’s mission is to provide small businesses in the construction trades (each a “CCMP Mentee Contractor”), with the opportunity to acquire knowledge about and experience with City of New York construction projects to enable them in the future to successfully compete for City of New York Public Work contracts that are independent of the CCMP. This, in turn, will widen the prospective pool of construction trade firms competing for City of New York construction projects.

NYCEDC, acting on behalf of OM/WBE, plans to select a consultant on the basis of factors stated in the RFP which include, but are not limited to: the quality of the proposal, experience of key staff identified in the proposal, experience and quality of any subcontractors proposed, demonstrated successful experience in performing services similar to those encompassed in the RFP, ability to meet M/WBE participation goals, 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.
