THE 30-SECOND BRIEF
Public Works is seeking approval to purchase eight heavy equipment lifts for fleet maintenance, using FY27 Technical Supplies budget. The $119,157.64 purchase will be made from Ari Phoenix Inc. via Sourcewell contract 12122-ARP, bypassing separate local bidding. This reveals the city’s choice of cooperative contract and vendor for lifts and indicates potential ongoing needs for installation, training, service, and future lift additions.
Funded from Technical Supplies account 0001.0507.4410.0000; contract backup documents attached to AIR.

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