Frequently Asked Questions
Utilities Signals in California
What upcoming utilities projects are there in California?
Civic IQ is currently tracking 500 utilities pre-RFP signals in California — projects, hiring plans, and grant funding discussed in local government board meetings, agendas, and budgets before any formal solicitation is published.
Which California agencies are discussing utilities projects?

What is a pre-RFP signal?
A pre-RFP signal 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 signals gives SLED and B2G vendors months of lead time to build relationships and shape requirements.
How do SLED and B2G vendors use utilities signals in California?
Vendors selling utilities to state, local, and education (SLED) buyers use these pre-RFP signals to find California agencies with budgeted, in-progress demand — then reach decision-makers before the RFP drops, while requirements are still being shaped.
How does Civic IQ find utilities signals in California?
Civic IQ monitors board meeting minutes, agendas, budgets, and strategic plans from local government agencies across California, and uses AI to surface utilities purchase intent. New signals appear here as agencies publish new meeting records.
