Request for Finance Terms- 2015 NGMA GESPC

The Georgia Environmental Finance Authority (GEFA) is soliciting finance terms for a Guaranteed Energy Savings Performance Contract (GESPC) designated for the North Georgia Mountains Authority (NGMA) FY 2015 project. This procurement is specifically limited to finance term submissions only from the four currently pre-qualified members of the GEFA Financing pool. The primary objective is to secure financing terms that will support energy savings performance contracting initiatives at NGMA, with deliverables including detailed term sheets and financing documentation. The solicitation requires submission of comprehensive financing proposals that outline the terms, conditions, and financial structures necessary to fund the guaranteed energy savings performance contract. Eligible respondents must be among the four pre-qualified members already established within the GEFA Financing pool, ensuring that only financially vetted and previously approved institutions may participate. The posting was made on October 30, 2014, with a submission deadline of November 5, 2014, providing a six-day response window for interested qualified lenders to submit their finance terms.

This procurement opportunity is restricted to the four pre-qualified members of the GEFA Financing pool, creating an exclusive set-aside that limits competition to only these previously qualified financial institutions. The specific identity of these four pre-qualified lenders is not detailed in the posting, though interested parties should reference the Term Sheet and supporting documentation available through the provided link for additional qualification details and requirements. No information regarding incumbent vendors, current contractors, or specific award values or budget ranges is provided in the solicitation materials. The financing structure appears designed to support energy efficiency improvements at NGMA through guaranteed savings mechanisms, which typically involve performance-based repayment arrangements. Respondents should review all attached documentation, including the Term Sheet dated October 28, 2014, to understand the complete scope of financing terms expected and the evaluation criteria that will be applied in selecting the optimal financing proposal.
