The New York City (the “City”) Department of Correction (“DOC” or the “Department”) is establishing a pre-qualified list (“PQL”) of vendors for the provision of various compostable paper products, including but not limited to the following: Paper plates, Paper bowls, Paper cups, Paper table napkins, Sporks and 5 Compartment paper trays. Prequalification allows the Department to evaluate qualifications of vendors before issuing a solicitation for a contract. The establishment of the prequalified list for these goods ensures that, at the time of solicitation, bids will only be received from qualified vendors included on the PQL. The DOC will use this PQL to solicit project-specific bids for various compostable paper products. Contracts awarded for these goods may range from $25,000.00 to $1,000,000.00.
