The NYC Department of Transportation (DOT) is seeking qualified firms to enter into an Engineering Service Agreement (ESA) to provide naval architecture, marine engineering, and related technical services for the City’s ferry fleet and associated vessels. The ESA will be a long‑term, task‑order based arrangement, allowing the City to call on the contractor for design, analysis, inspection, construction supervision, and value‑engineering services as needed over a three‑year base period with an optional two‑year renewal. • Scope includes design, modification, rehabilitation, and new construction of passenger ferries, vehicle ferries, and support vessels (e.g., barges, crane barges). • Work will be performed under a quality‑based selection; pricing is based on direct labor rates (capped by maximum hourly rates) plus reimbursable expenses—no markup is permitted. • Contractors must manage sub‑consultant approvals, adhere to maximum hourly rates, and submit detailed timesheets and expense documentation for each task order. • No local‑office requirement for this vessel‑engineering ESA; firms nationwide may compete. • The solicitation includes mandatory certifications (debarment, lobbying, Buy‑America, etc.) and a pre‑proposal conference on 2 Mar 2026 (virtual via Microsoft Teams). The award will result in up to two contracts (each potentially renewable), each covering a broad portfolio of marine‑engineering services for the City’s ferry operations.
