RFP: Planning Consulting Services for Two Syracuse Brownfield Opportunity Area Plans.
/Link to RFP: https://procurement.opengov.com/portal/syrgov/projects/155356
This RFP is unique in that the selected consultant(s) will be responsible for the concurrent creation of two (2) BOA Plans under the New York State Department of State (DOS) Brownfield Opportunity Area Program. As the City was awarded two separate DOS grants, the selected consultant(s) will be responsible for completing the two plans concurrently, but under two separate DOS contracts. Therefore, the consultants will be subject to DOS MWBE reporting standards for each BOA Plan project.
The deadline for questions will be April 24, 2025 at 5pm and proposals are due by Thursday May 8, 2025 at 2:30pm.
We ask that questions be directed through the OpenGov portal using the above link (and by selecting the "Question & Answer" tab), and we look forward to reviewing your proposal should you decide to submit.
