Pre-RFPInformation TechnologyDetected May 14, 2026

St. Lawrence-Lewis BOCES approved participation in Eastern Suffolk BOCES’ Joint Municipal Cooperative Bidding Program for Networked Copiers bid #2025-044-0402. Eastern Suffolk BOCES will draft specifications, advertise, evaluate, and award copier bids on behalf of participating entities, with St.Lawrence-Lewis BOCES paying an annual fee to be in the program. This creates an avenue for copier, MFP, and print management vendors to compete through the Eastern Suffolk BOCES consortium rather than via local standalone bids. Vendors that can meet standardized specifications and risk-transfer requirements can position themselves with Eastern Suffolk BOCES and participating districts ahead of upcoming copier refresh cycles.

Vendors providing services must sign a risk transfer/indemnification agreement for each bid term when services are requested.

Contract Award

At the July 20, 2026 meeting record, the town approved a purchase order for desktop computer replacements for the Police Department and Highway. The purchase was for Lakes Region Computer, which quoted Lenovo ThinkPad and Lenovo ThinkCentre systems. The order totaled $7,225, with implementation effectively selected already. A seller would treat this as incumbent and deployment intelligence, plus a cue for future refresh cycles.

Pre-RFP

The agenda included consideration of a 24/7 Telcom broadband partnership at the August 19, 2026 meeting. The item suggests the town is evaluating a broadband or telecommunications arrangement, but the document does not say a deal was already signed. That makes it a useful pre-decision signal for service scope, network needs, and possible implementation timing.
