One example of our federal experience is our project for the U.S. Office of Personnel Management (OPM) in Washington, DC and Charlottesville, VA. We have completed two phases that helped reduce electricity consumption by 52% and site energy consumption by 44%, and are implementing a third phase that will further increase energy efficiency and enhance resilience.

When it comes to working with federal facilities, CEG has a proven track record of delivering high-impact, cost-effective, and low-risk ESPC projects for agencies such as the Department of Energy (DOE), National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA), Office of Personnel Management (OPM), Department of Defense (DOD), Department of the Navy (DON). We understand the unique requirements and priorities of federal facilities, and our approach is tailored to address the following key aspects:
Safety as the Foremost Priority: Safety is always our top priority when working in federal facilities. We perform rigorous safety assessments to ensure compliance with all relevant regulations and standards and to ensure the well-being of personnel, facility users, and the public throughout the project lifecycle.
On-Schedule and On-Budget Delivery: Federal facilities often have strict timelines and budgets. We provide full-time, in-house project management, which eliminates external management costs and allows us to consistently deliver projects on schedule and within budget. Our team employs effective planning and execution methodologies to avoid delays and cost overruns.
Addressing Mission-Criticality: Many federal facilities serve mission-critical functions vital to national security, research, or public services. We understand the significance of uninterrupted operations in these facilities. Our projects are carefully coordinated with onsite personnel to avoid any disruption to critical functions and ensure continuous operation.
Enhancing Resilience and Implementing Renewable Energy: We recognize the importance of enhancing facility resilience and contributing to federal goals, including renewable energy implementation. Our projects often incorporate resilience measures and renewable energy solutions to align with federal mandates and sustainability objectives.
Obtaining Grants and Incentives: CEG is well-versed in securing grants and incentives available to federal facilities, including programs such as AFFECT. We actively seek and apply for these opportunities to support additional scope and expand project impact.
Consideration of Government Operations: Our approach involves a deep understanding of government operations and protocols. We work closely with federal facility personnel to integrate energy efficiency measures seamlessly into their daily routines and coordinate with other ongoing infrastructure and energy projects, ensuring minimal interference with government operations.
Comprehensive Risk Management: Federal facilities operate in complex environments, and risk management is crucial. We conduct thorough risk assessments to identify potential challenges and develop proactive mitigation strategies. Our risk management approach includes contingency planning to address unforeseen circumstances.
Compliance with Federal Regulations: Working in federal facilities requires adherence to federal regulations, procurement procedures, and reporting requirements. We have extensive experience navigating these complexities, ensuring full compliance with all applicable federal guidelines.
Ongoing Support and Performance Monitoring: Our commitment to federal facilities extends beyond project completion. We provide ongoing support, including maintenance services and performance monitoring, to ensure that the implemented energy efficiency measures continue to deliver high-quality results over time.
By prioritizing the key aspects above, CEG delivers successful projects for federal clients. Our approach aligns with the overarching objectives of these agencies while contributing to the greater goals of energy and water conservation and sustainability.
