From the meeting
At its July 27, 2026 meeting, the board approved the purchase of a used 2019 Caterpillar 950M Medium Wheel Loader. Heavy Equipment Operations said it would be bought from Western States Equipment as a sole-source purchase, and the motion passed unanimously. This is a closed equipment purchase, but it identifies the incumbent supplier and the asset class for any future service, parts, or replacement follow-on.

Questions about this project
What is a pre-RFP?
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.
When will Flathead Valley Community College issue an RFP for this project?
Pre-RFPs typically surface 6–18 months before a formal solicitation is published. Civic IQ tracks Flathead Valley Community College's meeting records, agendas, and budgets continuously and updates this pre-RFP as the project moves through the buying cycle toward an RFP.
How can vendors engage with Flathead Valley Community College before the RFP is published?
Vendors who reach out during the planning window can help shape requirements and build relationships with the decision-makers running the project. A free Civic IQ account sends you the pre-RFPs that fit what you sell, with the AI brief and the decision makers for the top matches in each digest.
