From the meeting
The materials repeatedly cited a vendor-driven software and network failure in Yakima and asked for contingency planning for future bar exam administrations. Requested fixes included paper backup materials, full end-to-end testing, and validated contingency procedures. The signal is not a purchase, but a clear technology resilience need that could drive future testing, software, or support work.

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.

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