IDS Rates

FY25 Rates — Effective October 1, 2024

"DCS will provide the best value to the State in every service we offer and to every customer we serve." DCS sets its rates to recover all costs without profit while remaining competitive with the private sector.

Rates are based on the most common type of document or service. Each job is unique and the actual cost will be based on a detailed evaluation of the requirements and priced based on standardized internal unit rates. Every job should be carefully evaluated and priced by an IDS Account Manager before a bid decision is made by a customer.
