From the meeting
The October 22, 2026 GM report said Metro would continue advocating with transit industry partners ahead of the December 11, 2026 continuing resolution deadline. Next steps included a letter from the GM and Board Chair to the congressional delegation urging inclusion of advance appropriations funding levels in subsequent funding legislation. Metro leadership and government relations staff were to continue engaging members of Congress and key committee staff.
This was a policy and advocacy update, not a procurement action.

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.
