THE 30-SECOND BRIEF
Cascade approved a $2,000 FY27 payment to the Joint County Emergency Response Team (JCERT). Funds support supplies, lodging, practice, and specialized equipment for the multi-agency tactical team.
While the amount is modest, it signals ongoing participation in a county-level emergency response consortium. Public safety vendors can view JCERT as a potential buyer for tactical gear, training, and specialty equipment, with the city as one of several funding partners.
JCERT is a regional team; this payment is Cascade’s contribution but procurement decisions may be coordinated at the county level.

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.
