THE 30-SECOND BRIEF
Public Works requested July 14, 2026 approval to purchase a replacement remote control for the city’s vacuum truck after damage to the existing unit. The lowest of two bids, $5,413.60, is from Coe Equipment, with funding split between water and wastewater equipment budgets. This confirms Coe Equipment as the current vac truck controls supplier and suggests ongoing fleet safety and control system needs where vendors can offer maintenance, training, and future replacements.
Two bids received: Key Equipment $5,527.68 and Coe Equipment $5,413.60; remote provides safe visibility while operating lift/vac features.

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 Salem issue an RFP for this project?
Pre-RFPs typically surface 6–18 months before a formal solicitation is published. Civic IQ tracks City of Salem'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 Salem 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.
