Energy Efficiency Project Services Master Agreement (EEPMA) RFSQ

The County of California's Integrated School Division (ISD) is seeking qualified vendors through a Request for Statement of Qualifications (RFSQ) for an Energy Efficiency Project Services Master Agreement (EEPMA). This procurement aims to establish multiple master agreements with vendors who can provide comprehensive energy efficiency project services throughout the county on an as-needed basis. The new EEPMA will replace the current agreement, which expires on October 31, 2017, with an anticipated start date of July 2017. All current EEPMA vendors are required to submit a Statement of Qualifications (SOQ) to maintain eligibility for the new master agreement. The RFSQ documents (Part 1 and Part 2) outline detailed instructions for vendor application, including specific qualification criteria and submission requirements. The primary objective is to create a flexible procurement mechanism that allows the county to engage energy efficiency service providers for various projects as needed. Vendors must carefully review the complete RFSQ documentation to ensure full compliance with the county's procurement process and to understand the comprehensive evaluation criteria for qualification.

While specific details about set-aside designations are not explicitly outlined in the provided documents, the procurement appears to be open to current and potential energy efficiency service providers. The RFSQ requires all incumbent vendors from the existing EEPMA to reapply, suggesting a competitive re-evaluation of current contractors. The master agreement structure implies that multiple vendors may be selected, creating a pool of qualified service providers from which the county can draw for energy efficiency projects. Although specific award values or budget ranges are not specified in the available documentation, the as-needed master agreement approach suggests flexibility in project scope and potential contract values. The procurement is designed to establish a framework for ongoing energy efficiency services, which indicates the potential for substantial and recurring project opportunities for qualified vendors. The comprehensive nature of the RFSQ suggests that vendors will need to demonstrate significant expertise in energy efficiency project services to be considered for inclusion in the new master agreement.
