From the meeting
The Town of Barnstable DPW Highway Division was seeking contractors for various snow and ice control routes from November 20 through April 15, 2027. Contractors had to submit applications, equipment certifications, insurance, a W-9, and equipment lists, and returning contractors had to reapply every year. Selection was based on experience, equipment type, and equipment condition, with preference for contractors that performed adequately the previous season.
The document also noted an early rate incentive payment deadline of November 20, 2026.

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.
