If you are interested in providing weatherization services for low-income households, contact the Local Weatherization Agency​ that serves your county with the federally-funded Weatherization Assistance Program.           

Each subgrantee procures contractors to perform the weatherization services for eligible households. The link provides the name and contact information for each subgrantee. You are encouraged to contact as many weatherization subgrantees as you wish and bid for any counties you want to serve.           

The procurement process adheres to Office of Management and Budget (OMB) regulations and provides for free and open competition in the procurement of weatherization services. If you have questions about the procurement process, timelines, or results, please contact your local subgrantee agency directly.           

Requests for Applications (RFA) to be a weatherization service provider are conducted at least every 3 years and more frequently to ensure statewide service coverage. Program services are delivered through a statewide network of local service providers, referred to as “Local Weatherization Agencies (LWAs)” and/or “Subgrantees."
