New York State BOCES On-Site Energy Manager Services

Description of goods to services to be bid:

The New York State Energy Research and Development Authority (NYSERDA) requests proposals from individual New York State Boards of Cooperative Educational Services (BOCES) to provide On-Site Energy Manager (OSEM) services to schools and school districts across New York State. On-Site Energy Managers are responsible for creating energy efficient processes that decrease cost and waste. Schools can lower operational costs, reduce maintenance time, and create comfortable, healthy, and safe environments by hiring or assigning a dedicated On-Site Energy Manager.

NYSERDA believes BOCES can leverage their existing relationships with schools to provide On-Site Energy Manager (OSEM) services effectively and efficiently. BOCES are in regular contact with and typically provide services to their constituent schools, positioning them to streamline the enrollment and fulfillment process for OSEM services. On-Site Energy Manager services provided will be in alignment with NYSERDA's P-12 Schools Initiative (the Program). The goal of these efforts is to help schools to become healthier, more productive learning environments. They aim to improve environmental sustainability by reducing school energy loads, decarbonizing their building portfolio, and improving indoor air quality (IAQ).
