From the meeting
At the October 7, 2026 meeting, the clerk reported a vending company had approached the committee about new cashless food and soda vending machines. Members said they wanted to talk with the vendor before making any decision because of complaints about the current machines and lost money. The procurement is still open, and the next step is a committee meeting with the vendor.

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.
