Six separate contracts, one program, one borough. NYCHA posted a fresh batch of Requirement Contracts for installing vinyl composition floor tile in apartments across the Bronx, split by development and tied to specific RFQ numbers — 523131 through 523150, plus 528366 and 528367 — all due October 9.

The geography tells the story better than any single contract number. Three contracts cover Bronx Neighborhood BX05 and BX06 under RFQs 523131 through 523147. A fourth covers Clason Point Houses in BX03 under RFQ 528367. A fifth and sixth split BX07 across RFQs 523148 through 523150 and 528366. That's six discrete solicitations, all posted the same day, all with the same October 9 due date, all doing the same kind of work in the same borough.

“Six discrete solicitations, all posted the same day, all doing the same kind of work in the same borough.”

This is a Requirement Contract, not a lump-sum job — NYCHA calls up tile work development by development as apartments turn over, and the contractor gets paid per unit against a schedule of prices rather than one fixed number. That structure rewards a flooring sub who can staff several crews and jump between developments on short notice, not a shop bidding one job at a time.

No engineer's estimate or plan-holder count is posted yet for any of the six contracts — this is a fresh NYSCR listing, not a tabulated result. A flooring contractor working NYCHA's system already knows the drill: register through NYCHA's vendor portal, get on the plan-holder list for each RFQ separately, and expect to see this same split-by-development pattern repeat across other boroughs as apartments cycle through turnover.

For a small or mid-size flooring shop, six live RFQs due the same day in one borough is either an opportunity to load up a season's backlog or a scheduling trap if you only staff for one crew. Either way, the October 9 due date is real and it's close.
