From the meeting
Montana Emergency Communications said the Emergency Services IP Network (ESInet) and Next Generation 9-1-1 (NG9-1-1) Core Services project was still in its initial phase and that physical network construction had not yet started. 5 million fund balance was fully obligated to the contracted ESInet and Core Services infrastructure, with some funds reserved for contingencies. It also said it could fund ESInet and Core Services statewide at the current level, but not i3-compliant call handling systems for PSAPs.
This is useful because it confirms the funded scope, the current deployment stage, and that the call-handling piece remains outside the current rollout.

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.
When will Montana Highway Patrol issue an RFP for this project?
Pre-RFPs typically surface 6–18 months before a formal solicitation is published. Civic IQ tracks Montana Highway Patrol's meeting records, agendas, and budgets continuously and updates this pre-RFP as the project moves through the buying cycle toward an RFP.
How can vendors engage with Montana Highway Patrol before the RFP is published?
Vendors who reach out during the planning window can help shape requirements and build relationships with the decision-makers running the project. A free Civic IQ account unlocks this pre-RFP's source document, forecasted RFP timing, and verified Montana Highway Patrol decision-maker contacts.
