THE 30-SECOND BRIEF
Kansas Sampler Foundation applied for a McPherson visitor attraction grant to support the 2026 launch of the Kansas Guidebook Online. They seek $5,000 total, including $1,000 from this grant, to add an AI-generated itinerary and mapping feature using their attractions database. The project aims to grow online visitors from 1,000 to 20,000 over five years and will heavily feature McPherson CVB as a lead sponsor. This signals spend on web development, AI tools, SEO, and digital tourism marketing tied to 2026 rollout.
McPherson CVB will be listed as lead sponsor and receive four sponsored article placements in year one, indicating ongoing digital content and ad inventory needs.

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