City Comptroller Scott Stringer is demanding that the Department of Education be more transparent as it prepares to award a massive IT contract to a tainted company.
"It's clear that the Department of Education has had problems in the past with transparency," Stringer told John Catsimatidis Sunday on WNYM-AM radio's "The Cats Roundtable."
"We have been diligent and vigilant in my office kicking these contracts back, demanding the Department of Education get their act together because this matters to taxpayers," Stringer said.
The $1 billion deal, first reported by The Post, would contract Custom Computer Specialist, a Long Island-based tech company that got caught up in a kickback scandal four years ago.
City investigators confirmed in 2011 that the company was cited in a multimillion-dollar scheme that led to the conviction of contractor Willard "Ross" Lanham on fraud and theft charges. After the probe, CCS was put on the city's vendor "caution list" for five years.
DOE officials said that the new contract, for "IT networking and installation services," meets federal requirements.
