The North Carolina Department of Public Safety’s Hazard Mitigation Program Support is seeking qualified private surveying firms to provide airborne LIDAR services under a three‑year IDIQ contract. Vendors must submit a Letter of Qualification demonstrating competence, licensing, equipment, and personnel capable of meeting USGS Quality‑Level 1 specifications for the 3DEP program. The award will be based solely on qualifications (cost is not a factor) and will be negotiated with the best‑qualified firm.

Joint ventures are prohibited; the prime contractor must manage any subcontractors and ensure all are licensed in North Carolina. • Scope: Airborne LIDAR data acquisition, processing, and delivery per USGS QL‑1 standards. • Contract type: Qualifications‑Based Selection (QBS) IDIQ, 3‑year term, start within 48 hours of award. • Mandatory deliverables: Letter of Qualification, certifications, licensing proof, insurance, and detailed project team resumes. • Submission deadline: 15 Sep 2026 2:00 PM ET via the NC e‑Procurement (Ariba) system. • Questions due: 2 Sep 2026. • No joint ventures; prime must manage all subcontractors. • Work locations: statewide, with priority phases as funding allows.
