DRONE PLATFORM FABRICATION AND DELIVERY

The Department of Law Enforcement in Hawaii is soliciting bids to fabricate and deliver three customized drone platforms for installation on a building roof in Oahu, supporting Law Enforcement Drone First Responder operations. Bidders must comply with detailed specifications outlined in the attached solicitation documents, providing written statements, engineering drawings, and certifications confirming adherence to all technical, legal, and operational requirements. The platforms must be transported to Oahu and hoisted onto the roof for integration with a drone docking station, with performance and delivery obligations tied to this specific location. The solicitation, numbered B27000148, was posted on July 29, 2026, with bids due by August 13, 2026, and is categorized under NAICS code 238190 for other heavy and civil engineering construction. While the total contract value is not specified, submission must include verified compliance with Hawaii state laws, including tax clearance from both the state Department of Taxation and the IRS, valid general excise tax licenses, and certificates of good standing from the Department of Commerce and Consumer Affairs and the Department of Labor and Industrial Relations. Contractors are required to maintain independent contractor status, carry appropriate insurance, and bear full liability for any patent infringement related to their designs or materials. Subcontracting is prohibited without prior written approval, and assignment of contract rights requires Comptroller consent under state statute. All work must comply with applicable federal, state, and local regulations, and the contractor must implement safeguards to protect personal information and promptly report any breaches. The State retains the right to inspect work during and after performance, with final acceptance contingent upon verified compliance with all contractual, technical, and legal obligations. No evaluation factors or weighting criteria are published, but proposals will be judged on responsiveness and responsibility based on documentation completeness and adherence to specifications. Payment will be issued upon submission of original invoices and fulfillment of all financial and statutory prerequisites, subject to fund availability under Hawaii Revised Statutes and Administrative Rules. Delivery and installation must occur without early un palletization, and no military packaging standards are required, though all materials must remain on their shipping pallet until final installation.
