From the meeting

At its August 14, 2026 meeting, the Executive Committee said the museum was making a $300,000 operating budget increase request through the Secretary's office. Dr. Melany Clark said continued discussion with the Secretary and his team could lead to a Richmond Board Meeting in November, with a final decision after an upcoming Zoom call with Dr.

Jeff Smith. This is a live funding request, not a purchase award.

A pre-RFP is an early indicator that a government agency is planning a purchase — a project discussed in a board meeting, a budget line item, a new hire, or a grant award — captured before a formal RFP or bid is published. Acting on pre-RFPs gives SLED and B2G vendors months of lead time to build relationships and shape requirements.
