THE 30-SECOND BRIEF
The agenda includes an Infrastructure & Innovation proposal on Upstream Legislative Strategies. This likely covers policy and legislative approaches to support SPUs infrastructure and climate goals. While not a capital project, it may create needs for policy analysis, lobbying support, or strategic advisory services as SPU shapes its legislative agenda.
This item is more policy- and strategy-oriented but can inform future funding and regulatory frameworks that drive projects.

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