From the meeting
At its October 13, 2026 meeting, Sangamon County approved a Bureau of Justice Assistance grant request for sheriff de-escalation and crisis response training. The anticipated revenue was approximately $700,000. The proposal says the project would use VirTra immersive virtual reality training and a contracted implementation team over 24 months, starting with procurement and installation.
This is an active pre-implementation training technology lead tied to public safety modernization.

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 Sangamon County'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 Sangamon County 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 unlocks this pre-RFP's source document, forecasted RFP timing, and verified Sangamon County decision-maker contacts.
