From the meeting

The technology strategic plan made cybersecurity a core priority and said RBC was working toward Tier 2 status by raising its Governance, Risk, and Compliance maturity. It also called for a proactive AI cybersecurity strategy aligned with NIST, OWASP, and SIEM/SOAR frameworks. The packet says Tier 2 documentation was submitted in March 2026.

This creates follow-on opportunity for cloud security, governance, and risk tools.

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.
