THE 30-SECOND BRIEF

What's planned

The Town and Wright Water Engineers are developing an emergency raw water supply plan from the Slate River to the water treatment plant using temporary pumps and above-grade hose or piping, for use if Coal Creek is compromised. Rental cost estimates range from $190,000 for 90 days to $380,000 for 30 days, and site visits with vendors are being scheduled to refine the design and pricing. This creates a near-term need for temporary pumping systems and emergency water infrastructure vendors to provide equipment, deployment plans, and refined quotes.

Background

Solution is conceived as temporary equipment rental rather than permanent infrastructure, suggesting multiple vendors may be involved.

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