Under Phase 1, Crtieria iv (page 5 of the NOO) states "iv) Projects in which the ESCO provided a water/energy conservation/renewable". It is uncelar what Criteria iv is looking for. However, it appears that Criteria iv and Criteria v were meant to be combined. Please clarify what the government is looking for in Criteria iv.

Please see revised Criteria iv and Criteria v - NOO Amendment 0002 dated 8/13/2022 Yes

Will the government consider allowing ESCOs (or the ESCO clients) to submit a copy of a signed PPQ that was previously completed in response to GSA's Round 5 ESPC Program solicitation? This will allow PPQs to be submitted in the exact same format while also reducing unnecessary burden on our references.

Yes, the Government will accept a copy of a signed PPQ previously completed, signed and submitted by the ESCO's customer. It is the responsibility of the ESCO to ensure all PPQ submissions are in accordance with the instructions and requirements of the NOO. No

Factor 4 b.1. requests a ceiling % rate to be used for negotiations and reasonableness for the Project Development/IGA/FP. The evaluation states that the IGA fee % will be compared to the historical IGA fee %s for ESPC projects. It is assumed ceiling rates would generally be a bit higher than the historical data found in awarded TOs. Will this be considered in the evalutaion of the submitted price %?

Ceiling rates for the IGA fee % will be evaluated using historical prices paid considering any adjustment to the prior price accounting for materially differing terms and conditions, quantities and market economic factors. No
