From the meeting
Police said Central Dispatch had an open software evaluation goal, and Council asked how that work would mesh with the LEAP study and whether a new platform could support non-police responders. The source also notes 14 of 18 telecommunicator positions were open, which makes system and staffing planning closely linked. This is a pre-RFP signal for 911 and dispatch platform work.
The next decision point is whether the city chooses a platform with broader call-intake and routing capability.

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.
