Question 2

What is Michigan Department of Environment, Great Lakes, and Energy looking for?

Accepted Answer

The Michigan Department of Environment, Great Lakes and Energy (EGLE) issued a Request for Information (RFI) to gather best practices on financial products and lending practices for energy efficiency projects to inform potential program design and a future RFP or program application.  The program aims to provide grants and loans for commercial and residential energy audits and energy efficiency upgrades, with goals to maximize loan volume, leverage private capital, accelerate energy savings, and create good-paying jobs.

Question 3

How do I find RFPs before my competitors?

Accepted Answer

Starbridge centralizes thousands of state, local, education, and university bid portals into one AI-powered feed. We monitor 24/7 and alert you the moment an RFP drops, so you're always first to know. Plus, we track early buying signals—like contract expirations and meeting minutes—months before RFPs are released.

Question 4

Should I wait for the RFP to be released?

Accepted Answer

No. If you're not already part of the RFP writing process, you're already behind.
