From the meeting
At the September 29, 2026 All Board Meeting, the School Committee said the yellow bus transportation contract expires at the end of the current school year. That makes student transportation a near-term rebid or renewal issue, and it is one of the stated FY28 budget drivers. The source does not name a vendor, but it clearly marks a future procurement window.

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