From the meeting
The county administrator reported the first-quarter results from the new Public Information Officer, Melissa Shays, including crisis communications, bilingual social media, and construction of new communications infrastructure. The update links the role to emergency messaging, accessibility compliance, and internal templates, which makes it a buying trigger for communications tools, workflow support, and multilingual content services. This is a personnel-driven signal rather than a procurement award.

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 Hood River County issue an RFP for this project?
Pre-RFPs typically surface 6–18 months before a formal solicitation is published. Civic IQ tracks Hood River 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 Hood River 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.
Where can I find more communications government opportunities in Oregon?
Civic IQ monitors board meetings, agendas, budgets, and capital plans from 100,000+ state and local agencies and surfaces communications pre-RFPs in Oregon as soon as they appear — months before they reach bid portals.
