The Port Authority issued a formal Request for Qualifications in March 2021 where teams submitted their Statements of Qualifications. A selection committee of Port Authority professionals reviewed the qualifications and evaluated the teams with the final selection resulting in the four short listed teams. The Port Authority says it conducted due diligence on each firm.
The four selected teams will be required to submit their bids by April 2022. Those bids will then be evaluated by a Port Authority selection committee. A final selection will be announced during the summer of 2022.
The short list of teams follows the Federal Aviation Administration’s final environmental approval of the AirTrain LaGuardia project in July 2021.
