THE 30-SECOND BRIEF
The PSAP Governance Board July 16, 2026 agenda includes action on an unbudgeted invoice for ORION microwave network upgrades. An invoice from FirstWireless/Communication Services shows a total upgrade cost of $167,000, with Dodge County’s 1/5 share plus personnel at $43,260 for May 31, 2025–May 31, 2026. The board must decide how to pay this unbudgeted cost and whether to proceed with the upgrades as scoped. Radio/network providers can discuss funding options, phased upgrades, and additional resilience or maintenance services tied to this microwave backbone.
Invoice lists "Invoice No. Fremont MICRO 25-26" under 911 Communications and references the Microwave Interlocal Agreement and ORION upgrade cost share.

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