NIGP 90627: Energy Management - Architectural

NIGP 90627 Energy Management - Architectural, an Item code, encompasses the architectural design and planning services that state and local governments procure to support energy efficiency projects, utility infrastructure improvements, and performance-based energy contracting—including feasibility studies, design development, commissioning coordination, and owner's representative services for capital projects targeting energy savings, renewable generation, or facility systems upgrades. State and local issuing bodies soliciting under this code span water districts, municipalities, counties, school districts, state energy departments, and special-purpose authorities. Recent opportunities show sustained activity across energy performance contracting prequalification vehicles, commissioning services for major facility retrofits, energy consulting and management services, owner's representative support for energy savings performance contracts, and architectural and engineering design for building systems and utility infrastructure.

Recent solicitations reflect diverse geographic activity and project scales. The Oregon Department of Energy issued RFQ #26-189 (closing November 3, 2026) for Energy Service Company prequalification to enable state and local agencies to engage ESCOs for energy performance contracts. The University of Texas System released RFQ 27PSP003 (closing November 2, 2026) for indefinite-delivery/indefinite-quantity professional engineering and architectural services on utilities and energy management projects with a maximum contract value of $5 million. The City of Waco solicited RFQ 2027-001 (closing November 3, 2026) for comprehensive energy consulting and management services spanning energy consumption analysis, procurement strategy, bill auditing, and demand response participation.
