Can SUNY enter into public/private partnerships now through the Research Foundation and affiliated entities?
A. Yes, but this will simplify the process and make it more direct. In all these ventures, SUNY will require that such agreements that use state property will include provisions for union worker protections (any current work done by a union worker will remain union work), PLA (Project Labor Agreements), prevailing wage and MWBE. This spans maximizing the use of its campuses within the scope of their missions to having the ability to enter into entrepreneurial partnerships, both with approval of a state oversight board.
