THE 30-SECOND BRIEF
The Treasurer and Executive Committee evaluated options to sell in-rem properties and decided to use Wisconsin Surplus for online auctions on a six-month trial basis. O’Connor Real Estate and Wisconsin Surplus were both considered, and Wisconsin Surplus will run auctions with buyer fees and tight approval timelines. While the main decision is made, real estate, legal, and title service providers can target buyers or partner with the county’s chosen auction platform for ancillary services and future rebids.
Decision may be revisited after trial; process changes could affect how future surplus and in-rem property sales are handled.

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