THE 30-SECOND BRIEF

What's planned

In May 2026, the SIU School of Medicine issued a 148060.06 purchase order to CDW Government LLC for Epic hardware merchandise and equipment to be sold to departments through the IT store. This procurement is tied to Epic, the clinical EHR platform, and indicates ongoing investment in EHR‑related endpoint and peripheral hardware across clinical and academic units.

What it means for vendors

Although the specific purchase is awarded, it confirms Epic as the core clinical system and points to a centralized internal resale model for Epic‑certified hardware. Vendors in clinical devices, secure endpoint management, and Epic integrations can leverage this insight to explore complementary solutions, manage lifecycle, and plan for future hardware refreshes aligned with Epic upgrades.

Background

Funded via non‑appropriated funds; equipment is held by the IT store and sold to departments, indicating a centralized procurement and standards model for Epic hardware.

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 Southern Illinois University-System Office issue an RFP for this project?

Pre-RFPs typically surface 6–18 months before a formal solicitation is published. Civic IQ tracks Southern Illinois University-System Office's meeting records, agendas, and budgets continuously and updates this pre-RFP as the project moves through the buying cycle toward an RFP.
