From the meeting
The council approved an Organized Retail Crime Grant Program award and agreement with the Office of the Illinois Attorney General. The grant includes $40,000 for license plate reader maintenance and a digital forensic program for the detective division, plus $5,000 for officer overtime. That creates a funded public safety technology and services opportunity already tied to a grant agreement.

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.
