Council Member Chris Banks questions NYCHA about the delay in documenting infractions and sending liquidated damages to Allied Universal. Lauren Gray from NYCHA explains the reasons for the delay and the challenges they faced.
- Previous management from 2019 to 2021 did not document infractions or issue liquidated damages.
- The new management team, starting in 2022, began documenting and reporting deficiencies to Allied.
- NYCHA often had to wait for Allied to provide timekeeping information before they could issue infraction notices.
- Delays in receiving timekeeping reports from Allied sometimes pushed the issuance of infraction notices by months.

Why did NYCHA wait until October 2022 to begin documenting fractions and sending liquidated damages to Allied Universal when the contract will begin in October of twenty nineteen.

I don't think any liquidated damage was done out during that time.

Again, when we started to recognize the new team that was brought on board started to recognize the problems within the con the managing of the contracts for both fire and security, we started immediately documenting and reporting to Allied their deficiencies.
