From the meeting
On October 20, 2026 the board reviewed a draft 2027 strategic action plan that identifies the first projects under the 2027-2031 Strategic Plan. The plan calls out work such as replacing staff and public workstations, implementing marketing, addressing deferred facilities and ADA accessibility projects, improving online registration, and supporting the Birch Bay library opening. Because it links strategy to future projects and budget impact, it is a strong pre-procurement signal.
The next step is board approval and then project scoping in 2027.

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.
