HPIDS Service Providers

The HPIDS contract establishes a pool of vendors to support imagery and data set acquisition across a broad set of program needs. These vendors have agreed to common state terms in critical business areas such as quality, indemnity, data ownership, and business process. Since competitive bid requirements have been met for agencies and local partners, an expedited procurement process can be driven through a statement of work.
