THE 30-SECOND BRIEF
Purchase of a fire apparatus (Pierce Saber) for the fire department to replace an aging reserve vehicle.
The current reserve apparatus (99 freight liner) requires extensive repairs, making a new purchase more cost-effective. The new apparatus has significantly fewer miles and engine hours compared to the old one. A new fire truck can cost up to a million dollars, making this a good deal. The purchase was made from a small rural department in Illinois.

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.
