From the meeting
The Bloomington Police Department requested statewide access for talkgroup H-BPD-TAC-5E for its Bomb Squad and Special Investigative Unit. The request said the talkgroup is for internal communications during response and on-scene operations, with occasional to minimal use outside the Metro region. The department said the change would reduce congestion on statewide law interoperability talkgroups.
The committee agenda placed the request on the October 28, 2026 action list for consideration.

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 Metropolitan Emergency Services Board's meeting records, agendas, and budgets continuously and updates this pre-RFP as the project moves through the buying cycle toward an RFP.
