Procurement

Doing business with the City of New York

To do business with the City of New York, organizations need to create a vendor account in the City’s Payee Information Portal (PIP) (to get paid) and also in Procurement and Sourcing Solutions Portal (PASSPort) (for all other contracting actions, including completing vendor disclosures, finding and responding to contracting opportunities, signing the contract upon contract award, and much more). The Mayor’s Office of Contract Services (MOCS) developed and maintains PASSPort.

To view contracting opportunities, visit the PASSPort Public Portal.

Note: A PASSPort account is required to respond to solicitations (RFx). Organizations looking to respond to Health and Human Services (HHS) solicitations need to have an approved HHS Prequalification Application in PASSPort.

  • For assistance regarding solicitations (RFx), reach out to the soliciting City agency via the email address listed for the relevant RFx in PASSPort, or post a question via the discussion forum of the RFx.

M/WBE Program

New York City’s M/WBE program is governed by Local Law 1 of 2013. For more information, visit the Mayor's Office of Minority and Women Owned Enterprises or contact us.

City agencies can award contracts of up to $1,500,000 for goods, professional services, standard services, and construction directly to City-certified M/WBEs without formal competition using the M/WBE Noncompetitive Small Purchase Method. This streamlined process makes it easier for the City to do business with M/WBEs.

Don’t miss out! Be ready to receive and respond to these opportunities directed specifically to our City-certified M/WBE businesses by creating an account in PASSPort today. Follow these simple, two-step account creation instructions.
