From the meeting
At its October 21, 2026 meeting, Council approved a new County procurement policy and repealed the old policy. The policy pushes e-procurement, group purchasing, clearer thresholds, and a formal RFP/tender process led by the Director of Corporate Services/Treasurer. This is a buying-rule change, but it also signals tighter procurement controls and more structured solicitations going forward.

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