THE 30-SECOND BRIEF
The Chittenden Central CESA board will review a one-time $15,000 implementation grant for organizational development and launch. Funds can support governance development, bylaws, administrative setup, planning work, and other costs to establish the CESA. This is early-stage money that could fund consulting, facilitation, strategic planning, and back-office systems, creating near-term needs for professional services and light IT/admin support.
Grant use categories are broad, leaving flexibility for services and tools needed to launch the organization.

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 Winooski School District'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 Winooski School District before the RFP is published?
