The operations of these systems are central to the FDNY’s ability to respond to emergencies. The Fire Department intends to extend the Contract for one year in the amount of $1,454,200.00 for continuing services, which would provide the FDNY the time needed to establish a new contract.

QAL-TEK provides expertise in the area of preventative maintenance, repair, training services and calibration for hazardous materials monitoring meters.
