From the meeting
At the November 25, 2025 strategic planning workshop and again in the February 24, 2026 strategic plan adoption materials, staff tied utility billing problems to a citywide IT plan, an interface fix between meter-reading and billing software, and a future upgrade of the Central Square billing system. Staff said the Central Square upgrade was planned once billing was caught up and that the City could not afford another failed software implementation. No vendor was selected in the source for this item.
Decision state: planning and implementation preparation.

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