From the meeting
John reported a call from Goodhue County emergency management director Earl Merchlewitz about the county splitting Goodhue into north and south coverage zones this fall. He also said the contracted company that services the township sirens gave short notice for testing, and the township wants more advance notice going forward. The work is already under contract, but the notice issue may affect follow-on service management.

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.
