From the meeting

The Executive Director reported that the Village's Alternative Calls for Service Program was updated at the June 16 meeting. Thrive is anticipated to dispatch on its own for mental health calls beginning in January 2027, with co-response with police needed until then. The ECHO program is continuing with current funding while more data is collected.

This is a live public-safety service transition, but the minutes only report status.

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 Town of Oak Park issue an RFP for this project?

Pre-RFPs typically surface 6–18 months before a formal solicitation is published. Civic IQ tracks Town of Oak Park's meeting records, agendas, and budgets continuously and updates this pre-RFP as the project moves through the buying cycle toward an RFP.
