What we do
We conduct expert manual searches of the New York City Mayor's Office of Contract Services (MOCS) 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 Vendex.  

Why conduct a 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 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?

What is Vendex (Vendor Information Exchange System)?

Vendex is an electronic database maintained by the NYC Mayors Office 
of Contract Services.  This database contains information that you may not find
anywhere else.

What will you find in Vendex?

*Debarments
*Cautions
*Warrants & Liens
*Affiliated entities
*Contractor Questionnaire
*Principal Questionnaire
*Entity Profile
*Performance Evaluations
*Contracts
*Tax Status


How much do your services cost?

We offer an hourly rate for research.

The cost per search will vary depending on volume.  Please contact us at 718-757-6933 for a specific price schedule..  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 MOCS.  These can be emailed as a PDF file or faxed to you.  A summary page will be provided that outlines which categories contained information about your subject.  The results themselves will not be analyzed.    Analysis and a summary of the results can be conducted at a $75 per hour rate.

How long does it take?
You will receive the results of your search within three business days, usually sooner.  Rush service is available at a premium rate.
