81626Y0761-Sole Source for Neilsen Consumer LLC

Pursuant to Section 3-05 of the New York City Procurement Policy Board Rules, the NYC Department of Health and Mental Hygiene (DOHMH) intends to enter into negotiations for a 6 year Sole Source agreement with Nielsen Consumer LLC, to provide licensed data sets, which will include Universal Product Code (“UPC”) level scan data information regarding Beverages, Tobacco & E-Cigarette, and Packaged Food sales for the Total US market and custom geographies for NYC 5 boroughs covering the xAOC + Convenience and Grocery (Food) channels and facts and time periods. This will enable the DOHMH's Bureau of Chronic Disease Prevention (BCDP) to learn how sales (by volume and dollar amount) of packaged foods and beverages, tobacco and e-cigarettes are changing over time in NYC and the nation as a whole and whether they are changing differentially by borough.

DOHMH determined that the licensed services of Nielsen Consumer LLC (“NIQ”) are proprietary assets which are owned by NIQ and not sold, but licensed to their clients. There are no other authorized resellers.

Vendors who believe they can legally provide these required services for Chronic Data Collection, are invited to submit and Expression of Interest directly to this RFI in PassPort- EPIN 81626Y0761, by 12/8/2025 no later than 2:00PM.
