From the meeting
At the October 21, 2026 FiPAC meeting, the town reported that the Dedicated Outdoor Air System (DOAS) unit for the school HVAC project was damaged before it was craned onto the roof. An evaluation was pending to determine whether the damage could be repaired. If it cannot be used, the unit may need to be remanufactured, which would delay the project.
This creates a clear follow-on equipment and service need.

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 Town of Columbia's meeting records, agendas, and budgets continuously and updates this pre-RFP as the project moves through the buying cycle toward an RFP.
