From the meeting
At its October 22, 2026 meeting, the board authorized an application for IDOT public transportation capital assistance. The attached memo said C-CARTS was seeking four laptops, one operations workstation, and one 14-passenger vehicle for an anticipated total of $141,048, fully funded by Illinois Department of Transportation appropriations with no local match. The application deadline was October 30, 2026.
This is a direct equipment and vehicle funding lead for rural transit operations.

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 Champaign County issue an RFP for this project?
Pre-RFPs typically surface 6–18 months before a formal solicitation is published. Civic IQ tracks Champaign 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 Champaign 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 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.
Where can I find more transportation government opportunities in Illinois?
