Electronic Renewable Energy Credit Management System

Solicitation STATE 0000000568SL is issued by the Missouri Division of Purchasing on behalf of the Missouri Public Service Commission to procure a secure, hosted, web-based Electronic Renewable Energy Credit (REC) Management System. The system must support the origination, certification, tracking, transfer, import, export, and retirement of RECs to facilitate Renewable Energy Standard compliance services and must be available 24/7. Key technical requirements include integration with the North American Renewables Registry and the ability to capture detailed facility data. The contract is governed by the laws of the State of Missouri and requires compliance with the Americans with Disabilities Act, HIPAA, and the Anti-Discrimination Against Israel Act. The contract follows a firm, fixed pricing model where payments are made by the system users rather than the State of Missouri. The initial term is for one year, with the Division of Purchasing holding the option to renew for two additional two-year periods. Award selection is based on a combination of mandatory specification compliance, vendor responsibility, and a weighted evaluation of experience, technical requirements, implementation, training, and maintenance. Proposals must be submitted electronically via MissouriBUYS by November 23, 2026, and must include ten specific exhibits covering pricing, technical capabilities, and business certifications. The state maintains strict oversight regarding AI risk management, reserving the right to cancel the contract if AI or machine learning integrations pose unacceptable cybersecurity risks.
