System & Project Information

New York State is working harder than ever to make it easier to do business. The New York State Contract System (NYSCS), a new easy to use web based portal, is the gateway to online Minority and Women Business Enterprise (MWBE) certification and provides streamlined access to contracting opportunities. For the State's agencies and authorities, NYSCS provides a comprehensive online system to track and report on procurement contracts and expenditures with MWBE firms.
