Small organizations encounter significant challenges in navigating New York City's contract requirements, particularly with the NYC Reimbursement Programs. These entities often do not have the same level of resources or expertise as larger organizations, making it difficult for them to manage the detailed processes involved—from grasping the nuances of the NYC PassPort System and applying for city funding via RFPs to coordinating the submission of necessary documentation. The added tasks of interfacing with city agencies, handling Program Expense Report Summaries (PERS), and establishing comprehensive policies for audit readiness further tax their limited resources. Such obstacles not only hinder their ability to obtain crucial funding but also threaten their operational budgets and goals, exacerbated by a one-size-fits-all approach ill-suited to their unique circumstances."
