THE 30-SECOND BRIEF
Benton County is funding replacement of its Clear Ballot elections tabulation equipment, with a total project cost of $107,614.08. Most funding comes from the County IT Replacement Fund, with $25,427.42 shifted within the Elections Equipment Replacement Fund to cover the unfunded portion. This confirms a current Clear Ballot implementation and associated hardware refresh, creating downstream needs for support, maintenance, security, and future upgrades.
Line item transfer moves budget from Ballot Assembly & Printing to Computer Replacement (Capital) to match actual spend.

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 Benton County issue an RFP for this project?
Pre-RFPs typically surface 6–18 months before a formal solicitation is published. Civic IQ tracks Benton County's meeting records, agendas, and budgets continuously and updates this pre-RFP as the project moves through the buying cycle toward an RFP.
How can vendors engage with Benton County before the RFP is published?
Vendors who reach out during the planning window can help shape requirements and build relationships with the decision-makers running the project. A free Civic IQ account sends you the pre-RFPs that fit what you sell, with the AI brief and the decision makers for the top matches in each digest.
