From the meeting
Fort Bend County's FY2027 proposed positions document, dated 2026-09-18, added one new Senior Buyer in Purchasing. The same document also showed grant or contract funded Senior Buyer positions in Purchasing, indicating added procurement capacity rather than a specific award. This is an open planning buying trigger because the Purchasing office is staffing up for more sourcing and contract workload in FY2027.
A useful next conversation is with the Purchasing Agent and Contracts Manager about upcoming bid volume, department priorities, and cooperative purchasing plans.

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.
