From the meeting

At the October 28, 2026 meeting, Executive Director Portia S. Bonner outlined a 3-year values-aligned growth strategy for CES. The plan called for a market and district needs assessment, a decision matrix, and a strategic growth roadmap with Cabinet for new initiatives, program expansion, and geographic growth.

It also said new program proposals must include overhead and administrative support allocations before board or leadership approval. The work was still in the planning stage.

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 Collaborative for Educational Services's meeting records, agendas, and budgets continuously and updates this pre-RFP as the project moves through the buying cycle toward an RFP.
