From the meeting
At its October 12, 2026 meeting the council considered the FY2026 Local Edward Byrne Memorial Justice Assistance Grant (JAG) cooperative agreement. The Shawnee Police Department proposed buying Meridian Archer 1200 Barriers, and the packet said Meridian was the only company with products compatible with the current inventory. Shawnee's share of the joint allocation was $18,245, so this is a grant-funded equipment buy with a named product and incumbent compatibility requirement.

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.

Pre-RFPs typically surface 6–18 months before a formal solicitation is published. Civic IQ tracks Town of Shawnee's meeting records, agendas, and budgets continuously and updates this pre-RFP as the project moves through the buying cycle toward an RFP.
