THE 30-SECOND BRIEF

What's planned

WestCOG is launching a Regional Local Fire Protection Plan Compliance Assistance project in response to Public Act 26-144, which requires each municipality to adopt a local fire protection plan and register fire protection entities by July 1, 2027. WestCOG intends to procure one qualified consultant to develop compliant fire protection plans and associated materials for participating municipalities using a standardized template. Fire service planning, emergency management, and public safety consulting firms can engage early with WestCOG to shape scope and position for the upcoming procurement.

Background

Consultant will document existing fire protection arrangements but not recommend operational changes unless separately authorized.

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 South Western MPO issue an RFP for this project?

Pre-RFPs typically surface 6–18 months before a formal solicitation is published. Civic IQ tracks South Western MPO'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 South Western MPO 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 unlocks this pre-RFP's source document, forecasted RFP timing, and verified South Western MPO decision-maker contacts.
