About this opportunity

The Queens Borough Public Library is issuing a Request for Proposals for Library Smart Cards to solicit proposals from experienced and qualified firms and individuals capable of providing smart card services. The procurement covers Queens County and multiple New York City jurisdictions. The RFP seeks vendors to develop, supply, or implement smart card technology for library patron services, though specific deliverables, technical specifications, and implementation timelines are detailed in the complete RFP documentation available on the Library's website at https://www.queenslibrary.org/about-us/procurement-opportunities. Proposers must submit all questions through the formal RFP process, with the Library posting all questions and responses on its website to ensure all interested parties receive identical information throughout the procurement process. The proposal submission deadline is April 21, 2026, with the RFP posted on March 19, 2026. Evaluation criteria, key performance objectives, and specific qualification requirements for vendors are outlined in the complete RFP documentation, which proposers must consult for comprehensive submission requirements and evaluation standards.

No set-aside designations or restrictions targeting disadvantaged enterprises or specific organizational categories have been identified in the available documentation. The Library reports that no identical or substantially similar procurement contracts have been awarded to any business enterprises within the past five years, indicating this represents a new procurement initiative with no incumbent vendor identified. The RFP documentation does not specify budget ranges, award values, or contract term details in the cover letter materials provided. Proposers should review the complete RFP documentation on the Library's website for information regarding contract value, budget allocation, technology integration requirements with existing library systems, and any infrastructure considerations that may apply to the smart card implementation.
