Start Up, Implementation and Ongoing Management Service

The City of Fontana, California is seeking a vendor to provide startup, implementation, and ongoing management services for a Community Choice Aggregation (CCA) program. The agency needs to evaluate two distinct pathways, which include launching a standalone CCA program or joining an existing CCA. This initiative aims to establish a structured energy program that aligns with local governance, financial viability, and community needs. For the standalone CCA pathway, the scope of work covers program design, implementation roadmaps, rate structure design, financial modeling, and power supply strategy. Ongoing management duties for this option include power procurement, billing and data management, customer service, financial accounting, and the development of energy efficiency programs. For the alternative pathway of joining an existing CCA, the agency requires a comparative cost-benefit analysis, evaluation of governance structures, negotiation assistance, and transition planning. Eligible bidders must be onshore organizations based in the United States. The selected vendor must perform all work onsite in Fontana, California. Bidders may submit their proposals digitally via email or through the designated online portal. The agency is currently looking for proposals to determine the budget for this initiative. Bidders must submit all questions regarding this opportunity no later than June 4, 2026.
