From the meeting
The council considered buying 175 wireless access points from Central Technologies, Inc. for the city's network refresh and coverage expansion. The low bid was $83,650, with a requested ceiling of $92,015 including contingency, and the work was tied to the FY2027 Information Technology budget.
The city said the existing Wi-Fi is deprecated and needs modernization across fire stations, recreation facilities, and part of the CSC building. The procurement was already competed, so the remaining value is implementation and support.

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 City of Oak Ridge's meeting records, agendas, and budgets continuously and updates this pre-RFP as the project moves through the buying cycle toward an RFP.
