THE 30-SECOND BRIEF
The police department’s May 2026 budget includes a dedicated FLOCK SAFETY line of $176,000, with approximately $156,800 spent year‑to‑date, indicating a substantial deployment of Flock Safety’s license plate reader/camera system. This suggests an active implementation or renewal covering hardware, software, and possibly analytics services across the town. While the primary vendor is selected, there is ongoing opportunity for integration partners, network and storage providers, and training/maintenance vendors to support the system and improve data use. Competitors may also want to track the contract’s likely annual renewal value and timing to prepare for future RFPs or to offer complementary technologies like body‑worn cameras, in‑car video, or real‑time crime center software.
Flock Safety is listed by name in the budget, making it clear they are the incumbent LPR provider for Cheraw.

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.
