From the meeting
At its August 19, 2026 meeting, MWA sought approval to move most of its internal data center into the cloud as phase two of the IT infrastructure upgrade. Staff said Softchoice proposed the $15,000 migration and that Microsoft grant funding could make the agency's cost zero. The ongoing Azure Cloud Solutions Provider service would also be entered into with Softchoice, with estimated monthly costs of $2,300 to $4,300.
This is a selected-vendor migration with follow-on cloud services and support value.

Acting on pre-RFPs gives SLED and B2G vendors months of lead time to build relationships and shape requirements.
