AI overview
The Connecticut Green Bank seeks proposals from qualified contractors to serve as an operations and maintenance (O&M) provider for its Residential Solar Lease 2 (SL-2) portfolio, which consists of approximately 1,100 rooftop residential solar PV systems installed between 2013 and 2016 across the state. The selected contractor will be responsible for a base scope of services including providing and utilizing a computerized maintenance monitoring system (CMMS) with real-time web portal access for the Green Bank, conducting weekly meetings with Green Bank staff, prioritizing work orders based on safety and production criteria, managing and overseeing service teams to mobilize quickly for corrective solutions, basic inventory management of Green Bank-owned materials, and direct customer service including communication with site owners, scheduling, and basic desktop analysis of alerts and site drawings.
In addition to the base scope, the contractor will perform corrective and preventative maintenance on a time and materials basis, including repairs and replacements to mitigate risk and improve performance, equipment procurement, subcontractor coordination, warranty claim assistance, interfacing with meter manufacturer portals (AlsoEnergy, Enphase, SolarEdge), and extraordinary efforts for diagnosis and difficult customer situations. The Green Bank anticipates a three-year agreement term with potential for extension. Pricing proposals must include a fixed fee for the base scope, incremental fixed fees for future additional Connecticut sites, hourly personnel/labor rates, and markups for subcontracted work, materials, and rentals.
Key dates include the RFP release on April 27, 2026, clarification questions due by May 18, 2026, and proposals due by May 25, 2026 at 5:00 PM EST. Proposals must be submitted electronically to solarassetmanagement@ctgreenbank.com with the subject line "Proposal for SL2 O&M." Contractor award notification is anticipated by June 8, 2026. Respondents must demonstrate relevant experience, provide CMMS functionality evidence, insurance coverage (including workers' compensation, general liability, professional liability, and automobile insurance with minimum A-VII AM Best rating), and comply with Connecticut state contracting requirements. The Green Bank reserves the right to select multiple contractors based on proposals received.
