The subcontractor will be responsible for creating outreach materials, designing engagement campaigns, coordinating with facility administrators, and ensuring compliance with state guidelines to drive measurable enrollment growth across Rhode Island’s public infrastructure. Performance is expected to align with statewide energy goals and must be completed within the submission window, with proposals due by June 12, 2026.

All activities must adhere to state procurement protocols, and the subcontractor must demonstrate expertise in public-sector engagement, energy education, and proven success in similar enrollment initiatives.
