Borrowing for referendum-approved construction projects.

A pre-RFP signal 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 signals gives SLED and B2G vendors months of lead time to build relationships and shape requirements.

Pre-RFP signals typically surface 6–18 months before a formal solicitation is published. Civic IQ tracks Sheboygan Area School District's meeting records, agendas, and budgets continuously and updates this signal as the project moves through the buying cycle toward an RFP.

Vendors who reach out during the planning window can help shape requirements and build relationships with the decision-makers running the project.
