NYCHA is excited to introduce you to our pre-qualified list (PQL) for Asbestos services. These services include removal, installation, fabrication, repair, materials, supplies, and other services performed by the Asbestos trade across NYCHA developments City-wide. We are seeking experienced vendors to join our community and provide these in-demand services!

What is a pre-qualified list?

A PQL is a tool that NYCHA will use to primarily contract for Asbestos services for its developments, streamlining the process for both vendors and NYCHA. NYCHA will publish Asbestos services contracting opportunities, and the PQL will predominantly be used to procure Asbestos services. After pre-qualifying according to specific criteria, vendors can bid on Asbestos services contracts released to the PQL.

All contractors interested in NYCHA’s Asbestos services PQL must follow two important steps:

1. Vendors can obtain a copy of the Asbestos Services Prequalification Application and prepare your response to the Request for Qualifications (RFQ) at; https://www.nyc.gov/site/nycha/business/nycha-pql.page Vendors must prepare and submit applications to NYCHA’s Asbestos services PQL as follows, with information in the subject line “Asbestos Services Prequalification Application Submission (and company name applying)” to email address; PQL@nycha.nyc.gov . To pre-qualify, vendors must meet the minimum requirements listed for experience, licensure, workforce capacity, and integrity. Applications will be evaluated by NYCHA on a rolling basis, but we recommend applying early to gain access to more PQL contracting opportunities!

1. Vendors who are admitted to the PQL can then bid for Asbestos services solicitations at NYCHA. NYCHA will confirm PQL evaluation decisions with applicants via a letter of acceptance or a letter of rejection. Vendors must bid on each Asbestos service contract award, as admission to the PQL does not guarantee contract award. To bid on a specific contract, NYCHA encourages vendors to apply a minimum of 15 days prior to the bid submission closing date to the PQL for an Asbestos services contract to be considered for that solicitation.
