The New York Racing Association (NYRA) is seeking proposals for a comprehensive customer data pipeline foundation build, targeting the centralization of customer data across its three racetrack properties and digital operations. The project aims to design and implement a modern, cloud-native platform that will unify currently fragmented customer data systems into a scalable, governed environment capable of supporting advanced analytics and personalization efforts. Qualified vendors are expected to deliver a fully functional data pipeline within 12-16 weeks of contract execution, with key personnel available for follow-up questions and clarification requests. Proposals must be submitted by September 16, 2025, at 5 PM prevailing time, either electronically through the Empire State Purchasing Group website (https://www.bidnetdirect.com/new-york/nyra) or manually at 110-00 Rockaway Blvd, Suite 1, Ozone Park, NY 11417. The procurement is specifically located in Queens County, New York, and will require vendors to demonstrate expertise in cloud data infrastructure, system integration, and customer data management. While the request for proposal (RFP) does not explicitly outline specific set-aside designations or vendor restrictions, prospective bidders should review the complete details and specifications available on the Empire State Purchasing Group website. NYRA reserves the right to alter quantities at its sole discretion, suggesting flexibility in the potential contract scope. The RFP does not disclose a specific budget range or award value, nor does it mention incumbent vendors or existing technology infrastructure that would require integration. Interested vendors should carefully review the complete RFP documentation to understand the full technical requirements and ensure their proposed solution aligns with NYRA's objectives for creating a unified, scalable customer data platform. Bidders are reminded that timely submission is their sole responsibility, and late or incomplete proposals may be summarily rejected.
