This document provides a pre-solicitation notice for an Energy Savings Performance Contract at the North Little Rock and Little Rock VA Medical Centers. The Department of Veterans Affairs intends to solicit Service Disabled Veteran Owned Small Businesses for the purposes of entering into an ESPC to develop, finance, implement, and perform measurement and verification on energy conservation measures at no upfront cost to the VA. Through ESPCs, prequalified Energy Service Companies privately finance energy audits and facility improvements to achieve guaranteed annual energy cost savings, which are then used to pay for the ESCO's services and debt over the term of the multi-year contract. The solicitation is expected to be posted on June 26, 2017 via the Federal Business Opportunities website and VA Vendor Portal. Offers must be submitted through the VA Vendor Portal and will be set aside for Service Disabled Veteran Owned Small Businesses verified through the Vets First Verification Program and on the Department of Energy's Qualified ESCO List.
