Title
A Local Law to amend the charter of the city of New York, in relation to the preparation and maintenance of a citywide pre-qualified vendors list.
Body

Be it enacted by the Council as follows:
Section 1. Section 324 of the charter of the city of New York is hereby amended to read as follows:
? 324. Prequalification. a. [Agencies shall] The mayor or any agency designated by the mayor may establish and maintain lists of prequalified vendors and entry into a prequalified group shall be continuously available. Prospective vendors may be prequalified as contractors for the provision of particular types of goods, services and construction, in accordance with general criteria established of the procurement policy board which may include, but shall not be limited to, the experience, past performance, ability to undertake work, financial capability, responsibility, and reliability of prospective bidders, and which may be supplemented by criteria established [by rule of the agency] for the prequalification of vendors for particular types of goods, services or construction or by criteria published in the City Record [by the agency] prior to the prequalification of vendors for a particular procurement. Such prequalification may be by categories designated by size and other factors.
b. The procurement policy board shall establish by rule the procedures by which
a vendor who has been denied prequalification or whose prequalification has been suspended or revoked may seek review of that decision. For the purposes of this paragraph, the suspension of a vendor's prequalification the suspension of a vendor's prequalification for more than three months shall be deemed a revocation. [Any vendor who has been denied prequalification or whose prequalification is revoked by an agency may appeal such decision to the agency head. A determination of an agency head may be appealed to the office of the administrative trials and hearings for a hearing and such office shall take final action regarding such matter. A decision by an agency to suspend a vendor's prequalification may be appealed to the agency head, provided that if such suspension extends for more than three months it shall be deemed a revocation of the prequalification for the purposes of this section.]
?2. This local law shall take effect 45 days after its date of adoption.
