From the meeting
The board discussed the proposed FY2027 county budget and chose to let it lay with a caveat tied to department input on dedicated fund amounts. 61, a near-$400,000 deficit, and several budget changes including probation contracts, a $13,000 assessor staffing increase, and a $3,500 computer services increase for the State's Attorney. Chairman McCall noted the budget could still be amended.
The budget item remained open.

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