RCC1301E Energy Design Build RFP Roxbury Community College

The Commonwealth of Massachusetts, through the Division of Capital Asset Management and Maintenance (DCAMM), is issuing a Request for Proposals (RFP) for an Energy Design Build project at Roxbury Community College in Roxbury, Suffolk County, Massachusetts. The RFP seeks a contractor to finalize the design, procure, install, and commission various energy conservation measures (ECMs) across the college's campus, including a geothermal heat pump system, a canopied solar photovoltaic system, roof-mounted solar thermal, lighting upgrades, a new energy management system, and HVAC upgrades. The RFP outlines detailed technical specifications, commissioning and measurement & verification requirements, warranty provisions, and training responsibilities for the selected contractor. Proposals are due on a specified date, and a mandatory pre-bid conference and site visits are scheduled prior to the proposal deadline.

The RFP includes minority and women-owned business enterprise (M/WBE) participation goals, but does not mention any set-asides or incumbent contractors. The funding for the project is provided by the Commonwealth of Massachusetts, and may include utility rebates and other grants. The contract value is not explicitly stated, but the RFP emphasizes the importance of the proposer's ability to achieve the estimated energy and cost savings through the proposed ECMs. The Commonwealth reserves the right to reject any proposal or select portions of a proposal, and may not award the full contract if it is not in the best interest of the state.
