JAMAICA,
N.Y., July 17, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- The New
Terminal One at JFK, an all-international terminal scheduled to
open in 2026, is pleased to announce the release of a Request for
Proposal (RFP) for security services. The new world-class airport
terminal is on a mission to deliver extraordinary experiences for
passengers, services providers and employees and is seeking a
Professional Security Service Provider (SSP) with experience
operating at the highest standards for both aviation services and
security.
The New Terminal One is a key component of the Port Authority of
New York and New Jersey's $19
billion transformation of JFK Airport into a world-class
gateway, with two new terminals, two expanded and modernized
terminals, a new ground transportation center and an entirely new,
simplified roadway network.
The New Terminal One invites qualified firms to submit
proposals for security services. The preferred provider will be
able to deliver maximum levels of safety and security by optimizing
the facilities, systems and services in place, with a focus on a
seamless and customer-oriented experience for both passengers and
staff.
As part of the RFP, the provider will be able to provide
services and personnel related to the management of the terminal's
security operations, as well as personnel and operations for the
terminal's security dispatcher, curbside coordinator, terminal
patrols and alarm response, employee screening checkpoints, sally
port and loading dock operations, curbside staff, and credentialing
coordinator. Optionally, potential providers may also submit a
separate proposal for the management and staffing of an alternative
off-site consolidated screening facility, to be used for the
delivery of consumable goods for concessionaires as well as
supplies for terminal business partners and tenants.
Aligned with the New Terminal One and the Port Authority's
commitment to diversity and creating economic opportunities in the
local community, the developer strongly encourages local, minority,
women and service-disabled veteran-owned businesses to participate
in the RFP. All participants in the RFP must submit diversity
participation plans detailing their strategy to achieve the New
Terminal One's goals of 30% MWBE and 10% LBE participation.
With the first phase scheduled to open in 2026, the New Terminal
One will be a state-of-the-art gateway to the New York metropolitan area and the United States. The project's Phase A
comprises expansive and light-filled departures and arrivals halls
and an initial 14 gates. At full completion in 2030, the New
Terminal One will be the largest terminal at JFK Airport, anchoring
the south side of the busiest US airport for international
traffic.
"We are committed to providing a safe, secure and seamless
experience for all passengers traveling through The New Terminal
One," said Simon Gandy, Executive
Vice President and Chief Operating Officer at The New Terminal One
at JFK. "This RFP focuses on the security of employees, goods and
equipment that enable our passengers to receive extraordinary
experiences every day and marks yet another step in our journey to
deliver a world-class international airport terminal."
Interested participants may contact procurement@onejfk.com for
further information on how to take part in the RFP. Participants in
the RFP will be required to sign a non-disclosure
agreement. The deadline for proposal submissions is
September 9, 2024.
About The New Terminal One at JFK
The New Terminal One (NTO) at John F. Kennedy International Airport is a bold and
exciting project to develop a world-class international terminal
that will serve as an anchor terminal in the Port Authority's
$19 billion transformation of JFK
into a global gateway to the New
York metropolitan area and the
United States. NTO will set a new standard for design and
service, aspiring to obtain a Top 5 Skytrax ranking and be
considered one of the finest airport terminals in the world.
The New Terminal One is being built on sites now occupied by
Terminal 1 and the former Terminal 2 and Terminal 3, where it will
anchor JFK's south side. Construction is taking place in phases.
The first phase, including the new arrivals and departures halls
and first set of 14 new gates, is expected to open in 2026. At
completion, anticipated in 2030, the New Terminal One will be 2.6
million square feet, making it the largest terminal at JFK and
nearly the same size as LaGuardia Airport's two new terminals
combined.
NTO will be a 23-gate, state-of-the-art, international-only
terminal. Sustainably designed and future-focused, the terminal
will feature expansive, naturally lit public spaces, cutting-edge
technology, and an array of amenities, all designed to enhance the
customer experience and compete with some of the highest-rated
airport terminals in the world.
The New Terminal One consortium of labor, operating, and
financial partners is led by Ferrovial, JLC Infrastructure, Ullico,
and Carlyle. NTO is being built by union labor and we are committed
to local inclusion and labor participation, focusing on diversity
and capacity-building opportunities, including ambitious
participation goals of 30% for minority and women-owned
enterprises, 10% for local business enterprises and 3% for
service-disabled veteran-owned businesses.
