What we do
We conduct expert manual searches of the New York City Mayor's Office of Contract Services (MOCS) N.Y.C. Passport f/k/a Vendex system to determine what information is contained on a specific entity or individual.  Call us at 718-757-6933.

Our primary clients include construction companies who are screening subcontractors, investigative firms conducting monitorships or owners/developers who want to make sure they are not doing business with an entity that has been flagged by the Passport f/ka/Vendex NY system.  

Why conduct a Passprt NYC Vendex Search?

Check out the investigation by WNBC NY here.  You may be identified by the "company" you keep.  Are you doing business with an entity that has been flagged for integrity problems?   

If you are bidding on NYC work and are using a subcontractor with integrity issues identified in Passport f/ka Vendex, your project may experience significant delays if you are told to remove that sub.  Isn't it better to know in advance who you have working on your project?

How much do your services cost?

Hourly or per search
We offer an hourly rate for research or a pay per search model.  Call/email for hourly rates.

Pay per search model is available if we will be going to Vendex anyway or if you have enough volume.  Each search is billed separately, so a search of the entity would be search (1), and a search of the principal would be search (2).  Each additional principal or entity name variation would be billed as a separate search.  Cost per search is $35-$50 depending on volume. 

Payment is required prior to conducting any searches (unless a corporate account is established) and can be paid via credit card.


Is there a minimum number of searches required?
If you have one search or 100 searches, we can handle your needs. 

What will you provide me/ How do I get the results?
We will provide you with the printouts from Passport f/k/a Vendex.  These will be emailed as a PDF file to you.  A summary page will be provided that outlines which categories contained information about your subject.  The results themselves will not be analyzed.
