Terms and Conditions of the Performance Guarantee shall be specified by the contractor in its response to the agency’s SOW. This guarantee shall, at a minimum, provide that the contractor is responsible for maintenance and repair services for any energy related equipment installed under this agreement (including computer software systems). The contractor shall guarantee a minimum amount of energy cost savings per year. Shall the minimum savings amount not be met, the difference shall be paid to the agency within 30 days of the end of the yearly period. An analysis shall be performed to determine if a contract change is required in the event that the guaranteed minimum amount is not met.

Aggregate annual payments made by an agency to both the utility and energy savings performance contract may not exceed the amount that the agency would have paid for utilities in the absence of the ESPC during the life of the agreement.

Guaranteed cost savings must exceed the debt service requirements.

Customer agencies shall have the right to place additional requirements within the scope of this contract in their SOW. Any maintenance agreement performed under this provision shall be effective for the duration of the project, unless otherwise specified by the agency in their scope of work.

Notwithstanding this provision, the Contractor shall not be entitled to any adjustment in the term or price of the ESPC arising from delays caused by the Government unless a detailed Critical Path Method Schedule was provided to the Government at the start of the project and updated regularly by the Contractor.

ESPC ENABLE PROCESS - Overview

The Department of Energy’s (DOE) Federal Energy Management Program (FEMP) is facilitating a fast-track approach to ESPCs referred to as the ESPC Enable process tailored for small Federal facilities (under 200,000 square feet) to implement targeted energy conservation measures (ECMs) including but not limited to lighting, water, basic HVAC controls, HVAC equipment and Solar Photovoltaic (PV). The ESPC ENABLE process provides a standardized process to quickly award and install projects with basic levels of measurement and verification (M&V).

ESPC ENABLE offers the same benefits as a conventional ESPC while at the same time, taking advantage of the GSA Schedule and its set of pre-qualified vendors and pre-negotiated pricing. This allows for a faster selection process so that a project can be designed and installed quickly. Other benefits include:

· A streamlined and standardized selection and acquisition process.

· Defined parameters for savings and scope, and.

· M&V appropriate for the project size and scope.

· Zero upfront capital costs to the agency

· Guaranteed energy cost savings that exceed annual payment

· Prescribed measurement and verification to ensure savings are achieved

· Standard tools and contract templates to ensure consistency and project replication

· Qualified energy service companies

· Extensive project assistance and technical support from the Federal Energy Management Program (FEMP) experts to ensure success.

Through the ESPC ENABLE program, smaller Federal facilities now have the opportunity to not only upgrade their old equipment, but also contribute to a number of sustainability initiatives and enhance their ability to fulfill their stated mission.

For vendors who wish to participate in the ESPC ENABLE Process, current SIN 246-53 Schedule 84 contract holders can modify their contracts to annotate participation in the ESPC ENABLE Process.

All Schedule 84 contract terms and conditions will still apply when utilizing the ESPC ENABLE Process to the extent that such terms and conditions are not inconsistent with the ESPC authority (42 U.S.C. § 8287 et seq; 10 C.F.R § 436.30 et seq.) . Additionally, vendors utilizing the ESPC ENABLE Process may be required to provide various data elements to FEMP as described and incorporated into any resultant MAS Task Order placed against Schedule 84 utilizing the ESPC ENABLE Process.

ESPC ENABLE PROCESS STREAMLINED ORDERING PROCEDURES:

Agency issues Notice of Opportunity (NOO)/Request for Quotation (RFQ)* via GSA eBuy and/or email

· Contractor receives NOO/RFQ and respond using ESCO Expression of Interest (EOI) Template**

· Agency evaluate responses and make a selection using the ESCO Evaluation Guide**

· Agency informs successful and unsuccessful offerors using NOITA/Letter to Unsuccessful Offeror Templates**

Further terms and conditions for leasing and rental are found in the Leasing and Rental Attachments of this solicitation.

Contingent upon the ordering agency’s Scope of Work, selected clauses found in Appendix 1 of this Attachment may apply if construction is required.

Return of Equipment Upon Expiration of the Lease Term: Prior to award of the lease, the ordering agency is advised to negotiate with the Contractor any costs for dismantling or removal of a leased or rented equipment.

If the Government does not purchase the equipment by the expiration of the lease term, the equipment shall remain the property of the Contractor and the Contractor shall resume possession. The Contractor is required to remove the equipment within 30 days of completion of the lease term unless otherwise agreed upon by the ordering agency.

If the cancellation ceiling exceeds $10,000,000, the agency shall provide written notification to Congress in accordance with the National Energy Conservation Policy Act Requirements (42 USC 8287).

Customer agencies shall have the right to place additional requirements within the scope of this contract in their statement of work.

The agency shall obtain title to the equipment following the final lease payment

The agency shall have the option of “buying out” the lease at any period during the lease. The buy-out amount shall be the remaining residual value.

SPECIAL PROVISIONS

This lease is for the number of years stated in the delivery order. The Government has the right to terminate this contract for convenience or default in the accordance with Federal Acquisition regulation Part 49.

In the event that the lease is terminated for lack of funding, the Government may purchase the leased equipment for the residual value within 30 days of receipt of invoice from the vendor or may elect not to purchase the leased equipment. Alternatively, if the equipment is not purchased, the Government shall permit the lessor to enter the premises and remove all or any portion of the leased equipment the lessor may choose. Any equipment not removed shall become the property of the Government.

CANCELLATION CEILING

Should the lease be completely terminated for convenience (for any reason other than the aforementioned lack of funding), the Government shall purchase the leased equipment for the residual value. The residual value shall be determined by utilizing the standard payments function on the commercially available spreadsheet program (e.g. Lotus 1-2-3, Excel, etc.) The contractor shall provide the Government a table detailing the yearly estimated residual value based on the interest rate quoted to the Government at the time of the Statement of Work.

In the event of a partial termination for convenience, the Government and the lessor shall negotiate a reasonable compensation to the lessor for the residual value of the leased equipment included in the terminated portion of the lease.

PERFORMANCE DELAYS

The Contractor shall be liable for default unless nonperformance is caused by an occurrence beyond the reasonable control of the Contractor and without its fault or negligence such as, acts of God or the public enemy, acts of the Government in either its sovereign or contractual capacity, fires, floods, epidemics, quarantine, restrictions, strikes, unusually severe weather, and delays of common carriers. The Contractor shall notify the Contracting Officer in writing as soon as it is reasonably possible after the commencement of any excusable delay, setting forth the full particulars in connection therewith, shall remedy such occurrence. Any delays caused by the Government in its contractual capacity shall be dealt with in accordance with Federal Acquisition Regulation 42.13. Notwithstanding this provision, the Contractor shall not be entitled to any adjustment in the term or price of the lease arising from delays caused by the Government unless a detailed Critical Path Method Schedule was provided to the Government at the start of the project and updated regularly by the Contractor.
