⚠ Important MWBE Note

Many of these NYC government contracts:

• Require active PASSPort registration
• Favor certified firms (prime or subcontract)
• Have tight submission windows
• Expect clean documentation and compliance

If your ownership and control documentation isn’t structured properly, certification delays will stall bidding.

Before chasing contracts, confirm your structure is positioned correctly.
