Can firms not based in New York or New Jersey become certified as M/WBE or SBE with the Port Authority?
Out-of-state applicant firms must meet the following requirements: • An M/WBE firm must be certified in its state and/or at its principal place of location. • A prime contractor can become certified if it has a history of doing business in either New Jersey or New York. • A subcontractor can become certified if it has an opportunity to perform subcontracting work on a Port Authority contract.
