THE 30-SECOND BRIEF

What's planned

Whatcom Council of Governments is updating its Human Services Transportation Plan, which it must refresh every four years. The plan will assess current mobility options for people with disabilities, seniors, and low‑income residents, identify system gaps, and recommend improvements. This is an early planning step that will guide future funding priorities and project rankings for Washington State DOT grants, creating downstream opportunities for transit, mobility tech, planning, and operations vendors once needs are defined.

Background

Public survey is being conducted via paper, online form, QR code, and email to collect input for the Human Services Transportation Plan.

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