All vendors are required to participate in NYCHA's MWBE Utilization Plan. Vendors are required to complete and submit at least ONE of the following items by the specified due date:

a.        MWBE Utilization Plan: must submit at time of bid proposal.

b.        Waiver of MWBE Utilization Plan: must submit at least Seven (7) days prior to bid due date. (Partial Waivers MUST be accompanied by MWBE Utilization Plan.)

Failure to complete the MWBE Utilization Plan or Waiver may deem your bid non-responsive.

Contract term: The Contract shall be for a period of three (3) years from the commencement date specified on NYCHA’s Notice to Proceed (NTP).  NYCHA reserves the right to extend the contract term for up to two (2) additional one-year renewals at its sole discretion.

Contract Award Limitations: NYCHA intends to separately solicit and award a series of Ten (10) IDIQ contracts for Installation of Vinyl Composition (V/C) Floor Tile in Apartments and Public Spaces pursuant to RFQs: 508231- BX01, 508232-BX02, 508233-BX03, 508234-BX04, 508235-BX05, 508236-BX06, 508237-BX07, 508238-BX(TBD-1), 508239-BX(TBD-2), & 508240-BX(TBD-3) (or this “Bid Series”).

a.       NYCHA has determined, in NYCHA's best interest, that a bidder (a "Bidder") cannot be awarded more than one of the aforementioned (10) IDIQ contracts, irrespective of whether the Bidder submits multiple bids for contract awards in the Bid Series ("Step 1"). Therefore, if the Bidder is awarded one of the IDIQ contracts in the Bid Series in Step1, the bidder shall be ineligible for the award of any additional IDIQ contracts in the Bid Series, regardless of whether the Bidder is the low bidder on these contracts (the "Additional Contracts"), but subject to Step 2 below.

b.       If the bidder would have been the lowest, responsive, responsible Bidder on an Additional Contract but for the award limiting language in Step 1, and NYCHA (i) has not received any other bids for the Additional Contract or (ii) NYCHA has determined that the next lowest bidder is ineligible for the award of the Additional Contract including, but not limited to, due the Step 1 award limiting language or due to a non-responsive or non-responsibility determination, NYCHA may, at its sole and absolute discretion, award the Additional Contract to the Bidder ("Step 2").

c.       Provided, however, that the Bidder shall not be awarded more than one (1) Additional Contract(s) under Step 2.

Bid Submission Deadline Extension: Please note that in the event NYCHA receives no responses in connection with this RFQ by the original bid submission deadline, the bid submission deadline shall be extended automatically for seven (7) calendar days.  The foregoing extension does not in any way limit NYCHA's right to extend the bid submission deadline for any other reason.  Note: we are only accepting electronic bids submitted online via iSupplier.
