From the meeting
The Sheriff agenda referenced a Starlink donation from Thompson Creek Mine. The item suggests the county was handling a received communications asset rather than launching a new procurement. That still matters commercially because it reveals an installed Starlink footprint and a possible path for support, installation, or expansion around donated equipment.

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 Custer County's meeting records, agendas, and budgets continuously and updates this pre-RFP as the project moves through the buying cycle toward an RFP.
