Energy supply

A New York State agency is soliciting proposals for local distribution of energy supply services, with proposals due September 8, 2026. This opportunity is reserved exclusively for Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned Businesses (SDVOBs) only, making SDVOB status a hard eligibility requirement rather than a preference. The procurement also carries concurrent contracting goals of 50% for Minority Business Enterprises (MBE), 50% for Women Business Enterprises (WBE), and 50% for Disadvantaged Business Enterprises (DBE).

No businesses have been awarded substantially similar contracts within the past five years, indicating an open competitive field with no incumbent identified. The scope covers local distribution of energy supply, though specific service volumes, service territory, customer base, or performance requirements are not detailed in the available solicitation materials. Contract value, term, and place of performance are not specified in the source.

The four-day turnaround between posting (September 4) and due date (September 8) is compressed; question deadlines, pre-bid meetings, or site visits are not identified in the available information. Interested SDVOBs should verify all proposal instructions, technical specifications, and scoring criteria in the full solicitation documents, particularly the attached ELECTRIC SUPPLY 2026.pdf file.
