Citywide Street Lighting LED Conversion and Network Controls

The City of Columbus, Division of Power (DOP), is seeking proposals for a citywide program to inventory, plan, manage, secure financing, design, permit, install, and test the LED conversion of all City streetlights not already converted to LED, and for a networked Lighting Management System (LMS) focused on Columbus’s three planned Bus Rapid Transit (BRT) corridors. The Project will be delivered under the City’s standard vendor services contract model tailored to align with an energy savings performance contract (ESPC) payment structure supported by verified savings. The Project is organized into three implementation phases: Task 1: Validation, Audit, Program Definition; Task 2: Preliminary Design, Guaranteed Maximum Price, and Financing; and Task 3: Final Design, Installation, Commissioning, and Closeout. • The project aims to improve energy efficiency, safety, and operational performance. • The project will involve the conversion of all non-LED streetlights in the City to LED. • The project will be delivered under an energy savings performance contract (ESPC) payment structure. • The project is organized into three implementation phases.
