Procurement Issues

Featherstonhaugh, Clyne & McCardle, LLP’s (“FCM”) long history and proven track record from the courtroom to the hallways of the State Capitol has uniquely positioned the firm to provide a wide range of procurement services to clients that have potential business before the State of New York. Together, the experienced attorneys and professional staff at FCM have spent decades representing various Fortune 500 companies, international organizations, start-ups, and established mid-sized enterprises on all aspects of procurement services at the Federal, State and local government levels.

The FCM procurement team regularly provides legal services in connection with the solicitation process throughout the lifecycle of materials submission in connection with Request for Information (“RFI”), Request for Qualifications (“RFQ”), and Requests for Proposals (“RFP”). Our representation also extends to post-award negotiations, contract implementation, and when necessary, administrative challenges. The strict time constraints associated with administrative challenges and bid protests mandates quick action and dedicated attention. As a full service law firm, FWC is able to stand by each clients’ side every step of the way.

Our professionals have also developed a unique position in New York as the firm that other law and lobbying firms go to in matters of conflict or general procurement assistance. If you are a firm with a client who either wants to challenge a procurement award or defend a successful award from attack and you are, for whatever reason, unwilling to undertake the legal effort necessary to challenge or defend such a matter we are available to provide assistance. We are always respectful of a referring firm’s primary relationship with the client and our long history of successful collaboration speaks for itself.
