THE 30-SECOND BRIEF
The police department plans to replace its current records management system (RMS), which is shared in a consortium with State College Borough, Patton Township, and Penn State University, because it no longer meets functionality needs or original contract expectations. Ferguson Township’s share of a new cloud‑based RMS is budgeted at $98,000 in 2027 for system go‑live and first‑year maintenance, with ongoing annual maintenance projected at $28,000 (up from $26,000 today). The consortium is in the process of selecting a new hosted solution that will eliminate on‑premise hardware and include maintenance, support, and data storage services. No replacement vendor is named in the CIP; this indicates active planning and evaluation rather than a decided award. Public safety software providers and implementation partners can engage with the Township and consortium to understand requirements, demonstrate cloud RMS platforms, and discuss migration, integration, and training services.
Current RMS vendor appears to be ProPhoenix, based on an attached maintenance cost document; new RMS will be cloud‑hosted and shared by the four agencies in the consortium.

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.
