Pre-RFPInformation TechnologyDetected Jun 9, 2026

The General Fund capital plan allocates 25000 in 2026 for "IT Upgrades," and the finance report notes that staff are evaluating potential changes to servers and backup systems for District data, reviewing the current phone system for potential upgrades, and purchasing tablets and an on-call cell phone for the Water Department. As of May 2026, none of this IT capital budget has been spent, indicating that needs are identified but vendors and specific solutions have not been selected. This presents a clear opportunity for IT and telecom providers to support a small utility with modernization of its infrastructure, including on-prem or cloud backup, server replacement, VoIP or unified communications, and ruggedized tablets for field crews.Vendors who can package secure, compliant, and cost-effective solutions tailored to a Colorado special district can help shape the technology roadmap before the District commits its 2026 funds.

The District already uses Caselle for finance and is implementing CUES WebOffice and other specialized systems, so new IT solutions must integrate with existing applications and support remote/field staff.

Staff had already completed profiling, testing, and several half-day sessions with the project manager. The decision is made, but the implementation still needs setup, training content, and support around member onboarding.
