NYC MWBE RFP & Government Contract Opportunities | June 2026 • Week 3 | NYS Psychiatric Center MWBE Construction Cluster, Port Authority Newark Airport EWR Redevelopment, MTA Substation Design-Build & Federal 8(a) Return Edition | 200+ Active Bids Across NYC, NYS & Federal

NYC • NYS • Federal • Time-Sensitive • MWBE-Relevant Procurement Intelligence

Issue #30 opens the third week of June with an unmistakable structural pattern in the NYS Contract Reporter: four state behavioral health and OPWDD capital projects are generating MWBE and SDVOB subcontracting windows simultaneously, all tied to the Office of Mental Health and the Office for People With Developmental Disabilities capital construction cycle. Bette & Cring LLC is soliciting MWBE and SDVOB subs for the OMH St. Lawrence Psychiatric Center General Construction scope (C754). North Central Mechanical is running a parallel MBE/WBE/SDVOB solicitation for the same facility's HVAC scope (C755). One block over in the same institutional world, DASNY has posted an EOI for the OMH Pilgrim Psychiatric Center Buildings 81, 82 & 83 egress stair and foundation rehabilitation. And DASNY has separately posted the OPWDD Valley Ridge CIT New Addition — a Construction Manager-Build vehicle from the Dormitory Authority's OPWDD division. Four facilities. Four primes or agencies. One procurement cycle. That is not scheduling — that is the NYS behavioral health capital infrastructure machine running at full speed.

The secondary pattern this week is scale. The Port Authority of New York and New Jersey has posted a master agreement solicitation for General Construction Services at Newark International Airport — the EWR Redevelopment Program — covering work-order-based GC services for one of the largest infrastructure redevelopment programs currently active in the region. This is not a single project bid. It is a standing vehicle. For MWBE-certified general construction firms with airport or large-scale infrastructure experience, this is a pipeline opportunity, not a one-off.

On the NYC PASSPort front, the DDC Queens Museum Expansion (Phase 2) is live through July 15 as a Competitive Sealed Bid — a public cultural institution construction project in a borough that has seen sustained capital investment. The Brownsville Recreation Center design-build (DDC) remains open through August 12 as the longest-running construction vehicle this cycle.

On the federal side, Issue #30 marks a return of the 8(a) designation as the dominant federal set-aside lane — a direct reversal from Issue #29's all-Total-Small-Business week. Two of the four active federal opportunities carry 8(a) designations: the USARCENT Defense Travel System administration and support contract (closes June 26) and the FEMA on-site film digitization and IT support RFP (closes June 29). The Total Small Business lane remains open with the Army Corps HRO Manpower/Data Analytics Integrator (closes June 15 — imminent) and a Right-of-Entry Management and Outreach contract from the Army Corps Honolulu District.

Issue #30 is a pattern week. The OMH/OPWDD cluster is active now. The Port Authority EWR vehicle closes July 8. The MTA substation design-build is live. Positioned firms move this week.

🏗️ PV291-QM2 Queens Museum Expansion Phase 2 — Department of Design and Construction

CR#: 85026B0080 | Agency: Department of Design and Construction | Issue Date: June 8, 2026 | Due Date: July 15, 2026 | Location: Queens | Type: Competitive Sealed Bid | Category: Construction Vertical / General Contractor/Construction Services

🟢 DDC public cultural institution construction — Queens — one-month runway

NYC DDC is procuring general construction services for Phase 2 of the Queens Museum Expansion at Flushing Meadows-Corona Park. Cultural institution construction through DDC carries embedded MWBE participation goals — these are among the most reliably MWBE-accessible large-scale construction contracts in the city procurement portfolio. Phase 2 vehicles typically follow a defined scope from Phase 1 design work, meaning the project documentation should be substantially developed. For MWBE-certified general contractors, construction managers, and specialty trades subcontractors with public institutional facility experience in Queens, the July 15 deadline provides a solid preparation window. Pull from PASSPort under CR# 85026B0080. Confirm bonding capacity and NYC SBS MWBE certification status before responding.

🏢 RFQ 85026Q0001 — Design-Build: CM Build for the Brownsville Recreation Center — DDC / Public Buildings

CR#: 85026Q0001 | Agency: Department of Design and Construction | Issue Date: June 5, 2026 | Due Date: August 12, 2026 | Type: Design-Build | Category: Construction Vertical / Design-Build Services

🟢 DDC design-build — Brownsville Recreation Center — longest runway this cycle

NYC DDC is soliciting for design-build construction management for the Brownsville Recreation Center. Design-build vehicles from DDC are among the most MWBE-accessible large-scale procurement formats in the city — they allow firms to team early in the process and build MWBE participation into the structure before the close. Brownsville is a Brooklyn district with deep civic and political investment, and recreation center projects carry community-level visibility that often translates to enhanced compliance scrutiny and opportunity. The August 12 deadline is the longest runway in this issue. For MWBE-certified construction management firms, design-build GCs, and professional services firms with civic facility or recreation center experience, begin team-building and qualification preparation now. Pull from PASSPort under CR# 85026Q0001.

🏥 850260I003 — CM Build for the Staten Island Museum — DDC / Public Buildings

CR#: 8502610003 | Agency: Department of Design and Construction | Issue Date: June 5, 2026 | Due Date: July 9, 2026 | Type: Innovative | Category: Construction Consulting

🟡 DDC construction consulting — Staten Island Museum — innovative procurement vehicle

NYC DDC is soliciting construction consulting services for the Staten Island Museum RFQ under an innovative procurement designation. Innovative procurement vehicles from DDC often allow for more flexible team structures than traditional competitive sealed bids — creating access points for MWBE-certified construction consulting, program management, and professional services firms that may not qualify as GC primes under standard vehicles. The July 9 deadline provides approximately three weeks of runway from publication. Pull CR# 8502610003 from PASSPort and review the scope carefully for subcontracting participation requirements.

🏠 06922P0040 — Provision of Congregate Supportive Housing — Department of Social Services

CR#: 06922P0040 | Agency: Department of Social Services | Issue Date: June 8, 2026 | Due Date: Open (Competitive Sealed Proposal) | Location: Citywide | Type: Competitive Sealed Proposal | Category: Housing Services

🟢 DSS human services RFP — congregate supportive housing — professional services and facilities prime lane

The NYC Department of Social Services is soliciting for the provision of congregate supportive housing through a competitive sealed proposal process. This is a human services contract that involves both facilities/property management and social services delivery — making it directly relevant for MWBE-certified social services organizations, housing operators, nonprofit developers, and supportive housing operators with NYC DSS experience. Congregate supportive housing contracts from DSS often carry city MWBE participation goals and are among the longer-term revenue vehicles in the human services procurement landscape. Pull from PASSPort under CR# 06922P0040 and confirm that your organization holds appropriate licensure and DSS vendor eligibility before responding.

MWBE/SDVOB-designated contracts flagged first.

🏗️ MWBE & SDVOB Bid Opportunity — St. Lawrence Psychiatric Center Decentralize Steam Production From Building 201 (C754 General Construction) — Bette & Cring, LLC

CR#: 2135991 | Company: Bette & Cring, LLC | Issue Date: June 9, 2026 | Due Date: July 15, 2026 | Location: Ogdensburg, NY | Category: Construction Vertical | Ad type: Contractor Ads

Bette & Cring LLC is soliciting MWBE and SDVOB subcontractors for the General Construction scope of the OMH St. Lawrence Psychiatric Center Steam Decentralization project in Ogdensburg, NY. This is Contract 754 — the general construction trade package, and it is running simultaneously with the C755 HVAC scope from a separate prime (see North Central Mechanical listing below). The simultaneous multi-prime structure at a single facility is the OMH/OPWDD pattern of the week: two primes posting concurrent MWBE solicitations on the same project, creating parallel subcontracting lanes for different trade clusters. For MWBE-certified civil, structural, concrete, and general construction subcontractors with upstate New York institutional facility experience, this is the general trades lane. Pull CR# 2135991 from NYSCR and contact Bette & Cring directly before the July 15 deadline.

⚙️ NYS MBE/WBE/SDVOB Solicitation — OMH St. Lawrence Psychiatric Center Decentralize Steam Production From Building 201 (C755 HVAC) — North Central Mechanical, Inc.

CR#: 2135897 | Company: North Central Mechanical, Inc. | Issue Date: June 8, 2026 | Due Date: July 15, 2026 | Location: Ogdensburg, NY | Category: Construction Vertical | Ad type: Contractor Ads

🔵 MBE/WBE/SDVOB-designated — OMH St. Lawrence Psychiatric Center — HVAC — Prime 2 of a 2-prime cluster

North Central Mechanical is soliciting MBE, WBE, and SDVOB subcontractors for the HVAC scope of the same OMH St. Lawrence Psychiatric Center Steam Decentralization project. This is Contract 755 — the mechanical/HVAC trade package — running in parallel with Bette & Cring's C754 General Construction solicitation at the same facility. For MWBE-certified mechanical, plumbing, HVAC, and sheet metal subcontractors with institutional facility or psychiatric center experience, this is the mechanical trades lane. Both solicitations close July 15, giving MWBE firms with multi-trade capacity the opportunity to pursue both simultaneously from a single outreach to two primes at one facility. Pull CR# 2135897 from NYSCR and contact North Central Mechanical directly.

🏛️ OMH Pilgrim Psychiatric Center Buildings 81, 82 & 83 Rehab Egress Stairs and Basement Foundation (EOI) — Dormitory Authority of the State of New York

DASNY is soliciting Expressions of Interest for the rehabilitation of egress stairs and basement foundation work across Buildings 81, 82, and 83 at OMH's Pilgrim Psychiatric Center in West Brentwood, Long Island. EOI vehicles from DASNY are pre-qualification vehicles — firms that respond successfully are positioned for the subsequent competitive solicitation, which will carry MWBE participation requirements. For MWBE-certified structural, concrete, masonry, and specialty construction firms with large institutional facility experience on Long Island or in the broader downstate region, this is a positioning opportunity ahead of the competitive award. Pull CR# 2136167 from NYSCR and prepare your firm's qualifications narrative before the July 10 EOI deadline.

🏗️ New York State OPWDD New Addition at Valley Ridge CIT — Construction Manager-Build Services — Dormitory Authority of the State of New York

CR#: 2136033 | Agency: Dormitory Authority of the State of New York | Division: OPWDD | Issue Date: June 10, 2026 | Due Date: July 7, 2026 | Location: Norwich Valley Ridge CIT | Category: Construction Horizontal | Ad type: General

🟡 DASNY/OPWDD — CM-Build — Valley Ridge CIT new addition — fourth project in the OMH/OPWDD behavioral health capital cluster

DASNY is procuring Construction Manager-Build Services for a new addition at the OPWDD Valley Ridge Community Integration Team facility in Norwich, NY. This is the fourth concurrent project in the NYS behavioral health and OPWDD capital cluster active this cycle — alongside the two St. Lawrence Psychiatric Center scopes (Bette & Cring C754 and North Central Mechanical C755) and the Pilgrim Psychiatric Center EOI. OPWDD CM-Build vehicles from DASNY carry structured MWBE participation requirements. For MWBE-certified construction managers, general contractors, and civil construction firms with OPWDD or similar state-operated residential/institutional facility experience, this is a high-value positioning opportunity. The July 7 deadline is the earliest close in this cluster. Pull CR# 2136033 from NYSCR before responding.

✈️ RFQS-6000003371 — Newark International Airport EWR Redevelopment Program — Master Agreements for General Construction Services on a Work Order Basis — Port Authority of New York and New Jersey

CR#: 2136108 | Agency: The Port Authority of New York and New Jersey | Division: Procurement Operations | Issue Date: June 11, 2026 | Due Date: July 8, 2026 | Location: See Document | Category: Miscellaneous | Ad type: General

🟢 Port Authority — EWR Redevelopment — standing GC master agreement — regional infrastructure pipeline vehicle

The Port Authority of New York and New Jersey is soliciting Statements of Qualifications for master agreements to provide General Construction Services on a work order basis for the Newark International Airport (EWR) Redevelopment Program. Master agreement vehicles at the Port Authority are among the most strategically valuable procurements in the regional construction market: they establish a standing contractor relationship from which individual work orders are issued without a separate competitive bid for each project. The EWR Redevelopment Program is one of the largest active infrastructure programs in the New York-New Jersey region. Port Authority contracts carry structured MWBE and DBE participation requirements. For MWBE-certified general construction firms with airport, transportation, or large-scale infrastructure project experience, this is a pipeline vehicle — not a one-off bid. The July 8 deadline gives you approximately three weeks. Pull the full solicitation document from NYSCR under CR# 2136108 and confirm Port Authority procurement registration.

🚇 6541 Design-Build Services for West Hempstead & Winfield Substation Replacements — MTA NYC Transit

CR#: 2136168 | Agency: MTA – NYC Transit (NYCT) | Issue Date: June 12, 2026 | Due Date: July 16, 2026 | Category: Construction Vertical | Ad type: General

🟢 MTA design-build — electrical substation replacement — major capital vehicle

MTA NYC Transit is procuring Design-Build Services for the replacement of the West Hempstead and Winfield substations — a critical electrical infrastructure project on the transit system. MTA design-build contracts carry embedded MWBE participation goals, typically 30% or higher, and require certified subcontractor participation at the team assembly stage rather than at the award stage. Electrical substation work involves civil, structural, electrical, and specialty construction trades — creating multiple MWBE subcontracting lanes within a single vehicle. For MWBE-certified electrical, civil, structural, and specialty construction firms, begin identifying which design-build teams are forming for this solicitation and request inclusion before the July 16 deadline. Pull CR# 2136168 from NYSCR or contact MTA procurement directly.

⚠️ NOTE: This solicitation may have closed or be in final evaluation — confirm on SAM.gov before pursuing. Listed for completeness. For MWBE-certified program management and community outreach firms with Pacific region or international project experience, monitor SAM.gov for follow-on vehicles or similar Army Corps Honolulu District opportunities. Active SAM.gov registration is required for any future pursuit.

Issue #30 draws from NYC PASSPort, the NY State Contract Reporter, and SAM.gov. Key eligibility reminders across all three layers:

NYC contracts require active PASSPort registration and NYC MWBE certification through NYC SBS for MWBE participation goals. Certification must be active — not pending or expired — at the time of submission.

NYS contracts require NYS MWBE certification through Empire State Development (ESD) — which is separate from NYC SBS certification. The MWBE/SDVOB-designated NYSCR contracts in this issue, including the Bette & Cring and North Central Mechanical solicitations at OMH St. Lawrence, the Picone SUNY Buffalo elevator listing, and the Bellows SUNY ESF listing, are governed by NYS procurement rules. Confirm which certification layer applies before responding.

Federal contracts do not recognize NYC or NYS MWBE certification. The 8(a) set-asides in this cycle (USARCENT DTS and FEMA film digitization) require active SBA 8(a) program certification — a separate federal designation. Total Small Business set-asides (Army Corps HRO Analytics) require only active SAM.gov registration. SAM.gov registration is mandatory for any federal contract or subcontract pursuit.

Firms that pursue contracts before resolving certification gaps often lose months correcting eligibility issues after deadlines have passed.

🔗 RELATED MWBE PROCUREMENT RESOURCES

The NYS OMH/OPWDD behavioral health capital cycle is a sustained MWBE pipeline. Issue #30 is the second consecutive issue featuring multiple simultaneous MWBE subcontracting windows tied to state behavioral health and OPWDD facilities — St. Lawrence Psychiatric Center appeared as a DASNY EOI in prior cycles and now has two concurrent prime-level MWBE solicitations. Pilgrim Psychiatric Center has generated multiple procurement windows over the past several cycles. Watch for additional OMH and OPWDD capital vehicles in Issues #31 and #32 as the state's facility rehabilitation program continues through summer 2026.

The Port Authority master agreement pattern. The EWR Redevelopment GC Master Agreement (CR# 2136108) is one of the largest procurement vehicles flagged by The MWBE Report in 2026. The Port Authority's capital program extends across EWR, JFK Terminal 8 redevelopment, and infrastructure projects throughout the bi-state region. Firms that position for EWR now build the Port Authority procurement relationship that will generate work orders across the full capital program for years.

The return of 8(a) as the dominant federal lane. Issue #29 was an all-Total-Small-Business federal week. Issue #30 returns with 8(a) as the lead designation — two of four opportunities. This cycle-to-cycle rotation confirms that MWBE-certified firms pursuing federal work need to maintain readiness across all SBA designation tiers simultaneously, not optimize for one lane at a time.

The MTA capital cycle summer acceleration. Three consecutive issues have featured MTA capital vehicles — the Station State of Good Repair Design-Build Package 2 (Issue #29), and now the West Hempstead/Winfield Substation Design-Build (Issue #30). MTA's Five-Year Capital Program is generating sustained procurement volume across construction, electrical, civil, and design-build trades through Q3 and Q4 2026.

The MWBE Report monitors NYC PASSPort, NY State Contract Reporter, and SAM.gov procurement listings weekly to identify time-sensitive opportunities for certified MWBE firms across construction, services, technology, and professional services sectors.
