From the meeting
At its October 19, 2026 meeting, the county budgeted $188,000 from the Federal fund balance for a school bus purchase. The board of education said it was buying a bus and using federal unassigned fund balance to cover reimbursement timing. This is a budget-backed fleet replacement signal with no vendor named yet.

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 Benton County issue an RFP for this project?
Pre-RFPs typically surface 6–18 months before a formal solicitation is published. Civic IQ tracks Benton 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 Benton County before the RFP is published?
