Performance Contracting Experience For this project, Selge Construction is uniquely qualified as the best GESC contractor to perform the work. Below are several qualities and capabilities that would benefit you for this project as well as any others like this in die future: • Local Michiana presence and network • Solar experience • Engineering capabilities • Construction capabilities Selge Construction has a very simple approach to performance contracting, it is our sincere desire to produce the best possible product for our customers. Our goal is to bring immediate and long-term value to our customers through a high quality installation and long term energy savings. This project would have the dedication of the full Selge Construction team. Our business is headquartered in Niles, MI just 8 miles from the project site. We have a very long history with the City of South Bend of building projects on time, on budget, and with the highest quality in the industry. Although Selge recently became GESC certified, we have been in the energy savings contracting business for nearly 60 years completing lift station and water treatment plant upgrades. We made an entrance into the solar industry in 2016 when we began working on the Michigan State Solar Carport project (13MW's). Since then we have completed one other solar project in downtown South Bend for JPR Engineering. Selge Construction has installed two solar projects to date (mentioned above and below in more detail). Selge has an added benefit with the solar experience of their staff for this project. Members of our team have been responsible for auditing and developing some of the largest solar projects in the country. A great example of those projects was the largest collection of rooftop solar projects in Indiana (10.1MV) for Duke Realty That project required avery detailed project proformato secure the third -party funding, a complete reroof prior to the solar installation and careful project management and execution. Part of every solar project requires an audit of the building's utility services and generating a proforma with a calculated return on investment period. In addition to die solar projects members of our team have overseen several energy audits for similar buildings like the Fire Departments. Those energy audits consisted of carefully reviewing HVAC, lighting, building automated systems, building seals, windows, energy storage, and solar projects. For this project, Selge intends to partner with Midland Engineering (ME) and JPR Engineering. ME will be focused on the roof inspection and any recommendation of necessary upgrades. ME has an incredible reputation with the City of South Bend and installed the original roof on the Fire Department. JPR will be engineering the architectural elements, roof layout, structural analysis, and system configuration. JPR has a great reputation in the community for providing superior client service, completing projects on time, and on budget, and exceeding expectations.
