please search for a number of sites to look at, then look for MSP or IT Support contracts in the Lee County area. 

Output a list of RFP's that are still open, and if you find them, list ones that were ended separately but we are looking primarially for open contracts that we can bid on from county, city, or schools.

To make sure I find the most relevant open IT or MSP-related government contracts for Lee County, could you confirm the following:
# Are you only interested in opportunities where the primary support location is within Lee County (e.g., Fort Myers, Cape Coral, Bonita Springs), or are state-wide contracts serving Lee County also acceptable?
# Do you want me to include RFPs for software, cybersecurity, or help-desk-only services, or only those covering full managed services?
# Is there a minimum or maximum contract size or duration that you'd prefer?

Once I have this, I’ll conduct a search across government portals and return a list of open RFPs, plus a separate section of recently closed opportunities you can prep for future bidding.

=== User: lets focus on those around Fort Myers and currounding cities, even those "close" to Lee County are fine. ===
lets focus on those around Fort Myers (and currounding cities), even those "close" to Lee County are fine. 

No software, but Cyber SEcurity and help-desk would work. 

Lets see any contract size

=== Assistant: Great. ===
Great. I’ll search for currently open government contracts in Fort Myers, Lee County, and surrounding areas that relate to managed IT services, cybersecurity, or help desk support (excluding software development). I’ll include any relevant RFPs or RFIs from city governments, county agencies, or public schools, and I’ll list closed solicitations separately in case they reissue soon.

I’ll get started and let you know once I’ve gathered the list.

can you perform another serach on those portals with that and show me any and all requests for services that meet my target?

To ensure I gather the most accurate and up-to-date RFPs or RFQs for IT support, managed services, or cybersecurity within 60 miles of Fort Myers, could you confirm the following:
# Are you open to reviewing both formal solicitations (RFPs, RFQs) and informal sourcing or intent notices (RFIs, sole source notices)?
# Should I include recently released solicitations (last 30–60 days) even if they’re not yet due?

Once I have this, I’ll run a full scan across the portals using your target criteria.

=== User: yes ===
yes

=== Assistant: Thanks! ===
Thanks! I’ll now run a detailed search across all relevant portals within 60 miles of Fort Myers to identify any open or recently released RFPs, RFQs, or RFIs for IT support, managed services, or cybersecurity—whether formal solicitations or intent/sole source notices.

I’ll return with a full list shortly.
