From the meeting
The faculty report highlighted the IRIS award, an AI-enabled livestock parasite diagnostic microscope, which was a result of the NC Innovation Award. The item signals an active research and equipment implementation effort tied to AI and diagnostics. A seller would want to understand whether the university needs support for deployment, lab integration, or related equipment services.

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 Appalachian State University issue an RFP for this project?
Pre-RFPs typically surface 6–18 months before a formal solicitation is published. Civic IQ tracks Appalachian State University'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 Appalachian State University 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 equipment government opportunities in North Carolina?
Civic IQ monitors board meetings, agendas, budgets, and capital plans from 100,000+ state and local agencies and surfaces equipment pre-RFPs in North Carolina as soon as they appear — months before they reach bid portals.
