From the meeting
MPL hired a Digital Literacy and Artificial Intelligence Strategist to advance staff and customer AI literacy and coordinate makerspace services. The work includes governance and policy updates, an inventory of AI-enabled tools, risk and procurement controls, training, public-service guidance, and monitoring. MPL and City of Markham Information Technology Services are testing limited uses of Microsoft 365 agents while reviewing access, privacy, and reporting.
This is a strong buying trigger for AI governance, training, and tools.

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 City of Markham issue an RFP for this project?
Pre-RFPs typically surface 6–18 months before a formal solicitation is published. Civic IQ tracks City of Markham'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 City of Markham 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 sends you the pre-RFPs that fit what you sell, with the AI brief and the decision makers for the top matches in each digest.
