These resources provide information and best practices for federal facilities interested in procuring on-site solar photovoltaic (PV) systems.

To solicit proposals for a solar system, a PM can issue a competitive RFP publicly and to multiple certified installers, or request quotes directly from a few trusted installers. For either of these methods, the PM can use MassCEC's project and cost data to find installers who have completed nearby commercial projects.
Agency contract officers, attorneys, and engineers are responsible for determining the final content of any solicitation. Updated to the regulations, codes, and standards applicable to solar PV are changing frequently; it is the responsibility of agency managers to determine which guidelines (and which versions) apply.
