From the meeting
Metro Link ridership continued to grow, and staff said the service will be assessed in 2026 for possible fleet expansion, larger service zones, later hours, and specialized services. The memo also said Metro is considering a downtown expansion and bike racks on vehicles. No solicitation was open, but the agency described clear future service needs.
A vendor should expect planning around vehicles, service design, and equipment options.

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 Kalamazoo County Transportation Authority's meeting records, agendas, and budgets continuously and updates this pre-RFP as the project moves through the buying cycle toward an RFP.
