AI Contract Overview
The County of Maui Police Department is soliciting proposals under RFP 26-27/P-58 for a comprehensive, station-based autonomous Drone as First Responder (DFR) program. The objective is to deploy a system where docked aircraft can launch autonomously in response to alerts, stream live aerial imagery and telemetry to the Motorola Solutions CommandCentral Aware platform, and return to base without a field-based pilot. The project is structured in phases, beginning with the installation of four docked stations in the base year, with options to add four additional stations annually for a potential total of twenty stations over five years. The selected provider must ensure all equipment complies with the American Security Drone Act of 2023 and National Defense Authorization Act provisions, meaning aircraft and stations cannot be manufactured by covered foreign entities. Proposals are due electronically via PublicPurchase.com by September 15, 2026, with a tentative award date in October 2026. Evaluation is based on a best-value determination, weighing technical solution and integration (30 points), relevant experience and qualifications (25 points), implementation plan and schedule (15 points), sustainment plan (10 points), past performance (10 points), and price competitiveness (10 points). Qualified offerors must have at least five years of experience serving government agencies, provide two similar reference projects from the last 36 months, and possess current FAA operating authority. Additionally, the successful contractor must be registered to do business in Hawaii and provide specific tax and compliance certifications through Hawaii Compliance Express.
