The Port Authority of New York and New Jersey has issued RFP #6000002546 for Expert Professional Operational Support Services to be provided on a task order basis over a four-year term. The procurement seeks consulting services across multiple Engineering Department units, including Engineering Solutions, Financial Services, Digital Transformation, Professional Services, and Content Information & Compliance. Proposers must demonstrate expertise in areas such as financial analysis, digital transformation project management, and information management. A virtual pre-proposal meeting was held on November 22, 2024, and proposals are due electronically through the Bonfire platform by 2:00 p.m. Eastern Time on December 18, 2024. Evaluation criteria will likely focus on staff qualifications, firm experience, technical capabilities, and the ability to meet diverse service requirements across multiple operational domains.

The Port Authority has established specific diversity participation goals for this contract, including 20% Minority-owned Business Enterprises (MBE), 10% Women-owned Business Enterprises (WBE), and 3% Service-disabled Veteran-owned Businesses (SDVOB). Joint venture partnerships are not permitted, and proposers must provide comprehensive insurance coverage, including Commercial General Liability ($2 million), Automobile Liability ($2 million), Workers' Compensation, Cyber Liability, and Professional Liability Insurance ($1 million per claim). Compensation will be based on a multiplier applied to actual salaries, with potential for lump-sum task order compensation. While specific budget ranges are not explicitly stated, the four-year term and multiple service categories suggest a significant potential contract value. Proposers must demonstrate a good faith effort to meet subconsultant participation goals and provide detailed information about proposed MBE/WBE/SDVOB firms for each potential task order.
