From the meeting
The policy allows sUAS training, system integration validation, and technology evaluations, including Skydio Hive deployments. That indicates the Department is already testing or planning to test drone-related technology inside its program. The named platform is useful incumbent intelligence for any follow-on training, integration, support, or expansion work tied to the sUAS rollout.

A pre-RFP is an early indicator that a government agency is planning a purchase — a project discussed in a board meeting, a budget line item, a new hire, or a grant award — captured before a formal RFP or bid is published. Acting on pre-RFPs gives SLED and B2G vendors months of lead time to build relationships and shape requirements.
