Energy Services

Cherokee Energy Management and Construction is pleased to present our consulting services proposal to the General Services Administration to provide Energy Management Services for the Federal Supply Schedule.

Cherokee Energy Management & Construction, Inc is a small, Native American, woman owned firm, established in September of 2006 to contract with the United States Government on Energy Matters. Although Cherokee Energy was formed as a corporate entity in 2006, our experience goes back decades. We often say that “We were Green before Green was cool.” Prior to 2006 we worked exclusively with commercial clients on energy matters. See our website www.gocemc.com for a prior client list.

Cherokee’s unique approach to local business and personnel development is what makes us different. We use a holistic approach to enhance communication among individual Resource Efficiency Managers, Clients served and Regional REMs. Our ability to combine technical resources, lessons learned, proven technologies and experience to individual REM programs, allows us to leverage the existing skill sets of individual Resource Efficiency Managers to provide outstanding service and large returns on investment to our clients.

A unique feature of the REM program is that it pays for itself through energy savings and verifiable cost avoidances. Annual savings created have to be greater than the implementation cost to each client. As a goal, a REM program should provide a return on investment of greater than 200 percent versus contract costs on an annual basis. No matter what we did last year, we always start back at a zero basis each new fiscal year. As such, the actual savings accrued over the course of our contracts can easily exceed 1,000 percent.

There are numerous reasons to choose a small business like us for a service contract. Many of our clients tell us that they like working with small businesses because they receive better support.

Cherokee Energy is a member of the Hampton Roads Green Building Council

Our competencies include all SIN codes from 871-200 through 210 and 871-299. Being new to the GSA schedule, Cherokee Energy is only listed for 871-208 (Resource Efficiency Managers) and 871- 207 (Energy Audits)
