From the meeting

On October 20, 2026, Councilman Ron Gibson sent a letter to the Indianapolis Public Schools Board supporting JHAT (Jesus Had A Trade) proposal to use IPS School 68 as a home for skilled-trades training. The program was described as a pre-apprenticeship centered on plumbing, HVAC, and carpentry. The letter said School 68 has about 66,000 square feet and that JHAT plans to collaborate with Living Word Church and Englewood Community Development Corporation.

The board was urged to approve the proposal.

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 Indianapolis Public Schools issue an RFP for this project?

Pre-RFPs typically surface 6–18 months before a formal solicitation is published. Civic IQ tracks Indianapolis Public Schools'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 Indianapolis Public Schools 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.
