THE 30-SECOND BRIEF
The Manager’s Report includes a Grants Update, and under Old Business council will consider approval of a Rural Strategic Plan by the S.C. Department of Commerce Rural program. This suggests the Town is actively pursuing or managing state and possibly federal grants tied to rural development. With a strategic plan coming from Commerce, future grant-funded projects for infrastructure, redevelopment, and community services are likely. Grant-writing firms, planners, and implementation contractors should track this as a pipeline for scoped, funded projects.
Item 10.A references approval of Rural Strategic Plan by S.C. Department of Commerce Rural program; Manager’s Report lists Grants Update as ongoing.

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 Winnsboro issue an RFP for this project?
Pre-RFPs typically surface 6–18 months before a formal solicitation is published. Civic IQ tracks Town of Winnsboro'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 Town of Winnsboro 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.
