About UNSPSC 81101516
UNSPSC 81101516 Energy or utility consulting service (Commodity) covers hands-on energy management and conservation work that state and local governments procure to optimize utility costs, meet sustainability mandates, and advance grid resilience. Recent solicitations show municipalities, utilities, school districts, and special-purpose authorities buying energy audits, performance-contract development, demand response program management, renewable energy integration planning, and utility-rate optimization studies for facilities ranging from municipal water systems to K–12 campuses. The Oregon Department of Energy and City of Pendleton are both actively seeking ESCOs to support energy savings performance contracts, while Texas State University, City of Austin, and School District of Manatee County are concurrently recruiting energy optimization and strategic energy management advisors. The mix of issuing bodies spans state procurement offices (Oregon, California Energy Commission, Washington Department of Commerce), municipal water and wastewater utilities (Tampa Bay Water, Eastern Municipal Water District, Salt Lake City Department of Public Utilities), cities and counties (Austin, Waco, Cedartown, Orange Park), school districts (Manatee County, San Antonio ISD, Roseburg), and independent authorities (California High-Speed Rail, Broward County Aviation). Work solicited includes investment-grade energy audits, measurement and verification protocols, design of conservation measures, engineering support for water infrastructure efficiency, demand response and grid stability consulting, utility data optimization, and feasibility studies for solar and energy storage programs.
Recent opportunities span Oregon (Pendleton RFQ for ESCOs with November 10 due date; state prequalification RFQ with November 3 due date), Texas (Austin commercial demand response consulting, Waco energy management RFQ, Eastern Municipal Water District rate optimization), Utah (Park City water and stormwater design engineering RFQ due October 30), Florida (Broward County environmental and energy planning RFP, School District of Manatee County energy consulting, Tampa Bay Water ecological services), California (CEC fossil gas technical assistance, CPUC BEAD administration), Washington (Commerce Tier 2 compliance assistance and transmission corridor study), and Georgia (GEFA utility grid resiliency support program).
