The New York City Mayor's Office of Asylum Seeker Operations (MOASO) is currently reevaluating its food contracts to find better solutions.

  • MOASO is in a continuous process of rethinking all contracts, focusing on improving efficiency and cost-effectiveness.
  • This reevaluation has been ongoing for about one and a half to two years.
  • The office aims to optimize operations and ensure quality in food service provisions.
  • Efforts include analyzing contracts for potential savings and enhanced service delivery.

And then just finally, the question of what are you going to do about the food issue because that does seem to be a challenge.
2:27:20
I think doctor Long is great.
2:27:22
I know that you know, DHS is helping, but is there some rethinking about food contracts?

We are always rethinking all of our contracts, especially as we're in this period of transition.
2:27:34
We've been doing this for now a year and a half, almost 2 years.
2:27:37
And so we are looking at all of our contracts and looking how we can save money and how we can do this better, especially with our pegs.
2:27:44
And so we're constantly looking for better ways to do food.
