Council Member Shaun Abreu inquires about DSNY's process for selecting new awardees in various scenarios, such as when awardees sell to each other or when non-awardee carters are sold to awardees.
- DSNY confirms that the RFP scorecard information is not public.
- In case of awardee consolidation, DSNY would refer back to RFP scores and review the next highest scorer in the zone.
- DSNY has broad authority to review any merger or consolidation involving awardees.
- Companies acquired by awardees must follow all commercial waste zone rules and will be subject to DSNY oversight.

DSNY identified a company that will replace the Royal And Queen's West?
1:50:57
Sorry I already answered that question.

If an awardee sells to another awardee and both of them have contracts in the same zone thereby lowering the number of awardees in that zone to two, what would be DSNY's process to select a new awardee in that zone?
Javier Lojan

So the current process is to refer back to the RFP scores and then engage in a review of the next higher score in the zone.
1:51:23
If the next highest score in the zone is still capable and interested in providing services in that zone we would then enter into negotiations with that carter.

Which if any concerns has DSNY worked to address regarding the sale of non awardee Carter's to commercial way zones awardees and can you please describe what that work has been?
Javier Lojan
1:51:47
So our contracts with the awardees give us the broad authority to review any merger or consolidation with a non awardee or another awardee.
1:51:58
Any company acquired by an awardee must still follow all commercial way zone rules and will be subject to the SMY oversight.
