Subject: Transition to the new Hawaii State eProcurement application, HIePRO
The State Procurement Office (SPO) is pleased to announce the transition to a new, updated eProcurement System. Over the next few months state agencies will be transitioning from the current eProcurement system, HePS, to the new Hawaii State eProcurement application, HIePRO [pronounced HI-PRO].
Register now for HIePRO at hiepro.hawaii.gov
Advantages of HIePRO
- Updated technology - The system will be faster and more compatible with browsers
- Mobile device friendly- May review/respond to solicitations on a mobile device
- Ease of use - User friendly application
- Transparent - Immediate public access to Procurement Notices and Awards
- Cost-efficient - Vendor transaction fee begins at a lesser amount and is capped at the same level as HePS
About the transition
