Public Safety Energy Improvements: Fire & EMS

Introduction

The City of Cleveland (“the City,” “Client,” “Owner”) is seeking qualifications for the design and implementation of facility resiliency and energy efficiency improvements on a budget-neutral, performance-contracting basis, in accordance with Ohio Revised Code (ORC) 717.02. The purpose of this Request for Qualifications (RFQ) is to identify and select a single qualified provider to implement a guaranteed energy savings performance contract for select City of Cleveland facilities. The project scope includes Public Safety facilities and sites, specifically all Fire and Emergency Medical Service (EMS) Stations including the 23 active stations, inactive or stations able to be converted to another function, and potential new Fire and EMS facilities.

These facilities range in age from over 100 years old to brand new. The size, condition, and state of repair of the facilities vary greatly.

MOCAP oversees the administration of the City’s Capital Improvement Plan (CIP) for all City-owned facilities, outdoor spaces, and infrastructure, working through its three divisions: the Division of Architecture & Site Development, the Division of Engineering & Construction, and the Division of Real Estate. The mission statement for MOCAP is:

To provide for the planning, designing, construction, and preservation of the City of Cleveland's facilities and infrastructure through collaborative and comprehensive planning, leadership in management, excellence in sustainable design and technical expertise, and quality construction based on integrity and professionalism.
