New York Institute Of Technology

New York Institute of Technology (NYIT), a private non-profit educational institution headquartered in New York, New York, operates as a federal grant recipient and prime contractor delivering tuition assistance and medical education services to the Department of the Navy, research and development services to the National Science Foundation and National Institutes of Health, and academic program support across fifty distinct federal agencies. NYIT is not a set-aside business and competes in full-and-open federal grant and contract procurement.

NYIT's federal footprint is heavily concentrated in tuition and medical education services. The Department of the Navy Bureau of Medicine and Surgery accounts for 75 awards carrying $12.8 million in combined potential value—about 87% of the institution's total prime award dollars. These awards are delivery orders issued under two Navy basic ordering agreements (N0018910GZ019 with 40 task orders generating $6 million, and N0018920GZ011 with 17 task orders generating $6.7 million). The remainder of Navy contracting (11 delivery orders, $1.2 million) flows through additional indefinite delivery contracts. Representative recent Navy contracts include a $601,119.84 delivery order for tuition and fees (June 2025, completion December 31, 2025), a $601,103.70 delivery order for tuition and fees (December 2024, completion May 30, 2025), and a $577,451.48 delivery order (February 2026, completion May 29, 2026)—all firm fixed-price awards with no set-aside designation, performing at NYIT's Westbury, New York campus. A $203,190 purchase order from NASA's Shared Services Center (October 2023, completion September 30, 2026) for the "NYIT ETIC Intern" program indicates NYIT also places tuition-assistance work under a NASA basic ordering agreement. Beyond service contracts, NYIT executes a $100,000 purchase order from the Office of Naval Research for "Distributed Detection Work" research (September 2021, completion June 30, 2025).

NYIT's federal research and development portfolio spans the National Science Foundation, National Institutes of Health, National Institute of Neurological Disorders and Stroke, National Cancer Institute, National Institute of Diabetes and Digestive and Kidney Diseases, National Heart Lung and Blood Institute, the Air Force Research Laboratory, and the Office of Postsecondary Education. Representative NSF research grants include a $249,955 project grant under the Mathematical and Physical Sciences program (CFDA 47.049) for research into invariant solutions in strongly nonlinear thermal convection (September 2025, completion August 31, 2027); a $149,999 NSF Computer and Information Science and Engineering (CFDA 47.070) collaborative research award for quantum computing and cybersecurity training through cyberinfrastructures (August 2025, completion July 31, 2027); and a $250,000 NSF Division of Undergraduate Education Research Experiences for Undergraduates (REU) Site award for computing and engineering for safe digital environments (June 2025, completion May 31, 2028). National Institutes of Health research recipients include a $472,592 project grant from the National Institute of Neurological Disorders and Stroke for preclinical development of RGIA5474, a novel migraine treatment (August 2025, completion July 31, 2028); a $459,000 NINDS award for research into molecular layer heterotopia using GPR56 knockout mice (July 2025, completion June 30, 2028); and a $459,000 National Cancer Institute project grant investigating microRNA 34/449 family role in choroid plexus carcinoma (July 2025, completion June 30, 2028). The Office of Postsecondary Education awarded NYIT $2.5 million under the Fund for the Improvement of Postsecondary Education (FIPSE) program (CFDA 84.116) for "Tech Talks: Promoting Civil Discourse at New York Tech," a four-year institutional reform project (January 2026, completion December 31, 2029), and an earlier $2.763 million FIPSE award for "Pathways for Advancing and Thriving in Higher Education (PATH)" (October 2024, completion September 30, 2028). The Department of the Army Research Development and Engineering Command awarded NYIT a $100,000 cooperative agreement under the Basic Scientific Research program (CFDA 12.431) for research on an adaptive and reconfigurable multi-functional distributed radar network (July 2026, completion July 19, 2027), and the Office of the Secretary of Defense funded a $547,034 project grant for the NYIT Robotics Center Research and Evaluation Capability Expansion Program (June 2026, completion June 11, 2027).

Award activity has modulated year to year, with 6 awards in 2022 growing to 17 in 2023, contracting to 11 in both 2024 and 2025, and 5 awarded through mid-2026. The recompete cliff is modest: eighteen awards with ultimate completion in the next twenty-four months carry combined potential value of $447 thousand. NYIT acts as prime on 227 of 230 recent awards (99%), with only three sub-award relationships—one to University of Maryland Baltimore County (March 2026) for gastric cyber-physical system research, one to Baylor University (September 2024) for a spectrum workshop conference, and one to Weill Medical College of Cornell University (July 2024) for direct LC-MS-based RNA sequencing tool development. Across the portfolio, NYIT's principal service categories are education and training tuition/registration services (95 awards) and research and development (4 defense R&D, 2 advanced development, and multiple NSF and NIH grants). The institution's combined dollars obligated across all awards ($106.1 million) exceed combined potential value ($14.7 million) by a factor of 7.24, indicating substantial multi-year obligation depth, primarily driven by the Navy's ongoing tuition-assistance awards issued repeatedly against standing basic ordering agreements.
