From the meeting
The Ministry of Emergency Preparedness and Response launched the 2026-2027 Community Emergency Preparedness Grant. This is a funding program for municipalities and related public agencies, not an awarded project yet. It matters because it can drive purchases in emergency readiness, equipment, training, and planning once applications are made and approved.

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.

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