THE 30-SECOND BRIEF
Northampton County Schools plans to spend up to $250,000 with Petroleum Traders Corporation for heating fuel oil in the 2026/2027 school year, using a state contract. The district spent about $104,303 on heating fuel in 2025/2026 and is seeking board approval for the higher not-to-exceed amount. This confirms Petroleum Traders as the incumbent fuel supplier and signals ongoing needs for fuel storage, monitoring, and efficiency improvements around district facilities.
Purchase is contingent on Petroleum Traders remaining a state contract vendor; funded via local budget code 2.6530.802.421.000.000.00.

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