AI Contract Overview

The New York State Department of State is providing planning services for the Downtown Revitalization Initiative and New York Forward programs through a contract spanning from January 1, 2023, to December 31, 2027. The primary objective is to assist Local Planning Committees in developing Strategic Investment Plans that establish a community vision and revitalization goals based on local asset assessments. These plans must propose economically feasible, implementation-ready projects focused on neighborhood transformation, specifically addressing needs in economic development, transportation, housing, energy efficiency, and community development. This work requires close collaboration with state agencies including Empire State Development, Home and Community Renewal, and the New York State Energy Research and Development Authority.

The contract is managed by the Bureau of Fiscal Management at the Department of State in Albany, New York, with Coleen Kern serving as the primary point of contact.

Full Description

In 2022, the Department of State (DOS) issued a Request for Proposal (RFP) #22-DRINYF-20 seeking consultants to provide the Downtown Revitalization Initative (DRI) and New York Forward (NYF) programs with planning services for 5 years (beginning on 1/1/2023). This procurement resulted in 20 consultants being selected representing each of the 10 REDC regions of New York State in each programarea. Each consultant or team of consultants assists the DRI and NYF Local Planning Committees (LPC) with preparing a Strategic Investment Plan for either the DRI and/or NYF areas which builds on previous planning work in their downtowns. Selected Proposers work with a team of State agencies, including representatives from DOS, Empire State Development (ESD), Home and Community Renewal (HCR), New York State Energy Research and Development Authority (NYSERDA) and other agencies as appropriate. Each plan will include a community vision, and goals for revitalization that are based on an assessment of local assets and opportunities and propose a series of implementation-ready projects that will focus public and private investment on revitalization within the downtown area. The proposed projects will address economic development, transportation, housing, energy efficiency, and community development needs. Projects proposed in the Strategic Investment Plans must be viable and economically feasible; must be organized around the central goal of neighborhood transformation; andshould leverage additional public and private investments. As per Section 6.3 of the RFP “In the event that the awarded Proposer is unavailable or does not have the capacity to take on the project in their awarded Program/Region in future years, DOS may contract with the next highest scoring Proposer who is available and has the capacity to take on the project.” For the Southeren Tier, the current Awardee's are unable to perform the services in Section 2 of the RFP, therefore DOS obtained approval to include the Southeren Tier Scope within the existing contracts of Buckhurst, Fish & Jaquemart, Inc dba BFJ Planning for the Southern Tier NYF and HR&A Advisors Inc for the Southern Tier DRI, to perform the work for Years 4 and 5.
