From the meeting
The bills register shows the city paid On-Site Computers for Microsoft 365 Business Agreement, cloud backup, Huntress, Acronis, and remote support for the police department. The department report also says the new 2026 vehicle was put into service, but the IT line items are the clearer buying signal. This indicates ongoing software subscription and support spending rather than a new solicitation.
The useful follow-up is account expansion, cybersecurity, backup, and Microsoft 365 management.

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.

Pre-RFPs typically surface 6–18 months before a formal solicitation is published. Civic IQ tracks City of Plainview's meeting records, agendas, and budgets continuously and updates this pre-RFP as the project moves through the buying cycle toward an RFP.
