THE 30-SECOND BRIEF
The Board will consider issuing independent RFPs for an Automated Biometric Identification System (ABIS). This signals upcoming competitive solicitations to acquire or replace core biometric identification capabilities. Biometric technology vendors, integrators, and hosting providers should monitor the CAL-ID/RAN Board site for the RFP release and be ready to address interoperability, performance, and CJIS/security requirements.
Agenda explicitly lists "Independent RFPs for ABIS and Mobile ID" as an action item, indicating intent to proceed with solicitations, though documents are not yet posted.

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 San Diego Police Department issue an RFP for this project?
Pre-RFPs typically surface 6–18 months before a formal solicitation is published. Civic IQ tracks San Diego Police Department'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 San Diego Police Department 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 unlocks this pre-RFP's source document, forecasted RFP timing, and verified San Diego Police Department decision-maker contacts.
