NMSU welcomes third party vendors to campus. UAS use at NMSU by outside individuals requires a sponsoring department or venue at NMSU. Once this has been achieved this department can file a flight request. Please be aware that third Party vendors will still need the UAS pilot to be a Remote Pilot Certificate holder, and to have insurance meeting NMSU requirements. If you need aid in finding a sponsoring department feel free to reach out to NMSU Environmental Health Safety and Risk Management.
All third party vendor flights will still follow the same tiered system and restrictions as NMSU pilots. Any waivers needed for flights are the responsibility of the vendor. A wavier for certain flights, however, does not grant the vendor the ability to bypass NMSU procedure for operations.
Crimson Connection must be used by a sponsoring department on behalf of the third party vendor. Ensure that the vendor has completed all steps before submitting the request.
