Government contracts for staffing services in New York

Staffing services contracts in New York typically cover temporary clerical support, IT contractor staff augmentation, healthcare staffing for VA facilities, linguist and translation staffing, and surge-hiring task orders. Federal posts in this category fall under NAICS 561320 (Temporary Help Services), and the bulk of the work flows to the VA, DoD components, and GSA. The bulk of small-business staffing awards flow through the GSA Multiple Award Schedule (MAS) and VA T4NG-style vehicles.

New York currently has 6 open staffing services contracts in our database, with 4 added in the last 30 days. That's a steady cadence — enough flow to make automated alerting worthwhile rather than manual portal-checking. The most active buyers are Agriculture & Markets, NYS Dept. of (1 open posts) and Gateway Development Commission (1), with the rest spread across other federal civilian agencies, DoD components, and state and local departments active in New York.

Beyond federal opportunities, much of the staffing services work in New York is posted through the New York State Contract Reporter, with recurring buyers including the New York State Department of Transportation, the MTA, the Port Authority of NY/NJ, and SUNY/CUNY. New York mandates aggressive MWBE participation goals (often 30%) on most state contracts — primes must demonstrate good-faith outreach to certified subs. ContractRadar pulls federal postings from SAM.gov alongside state and local feeds so a staffing firm doesn't have to monitor each portal manually.
