SNAP Vendor Survey: Results Now Available
By Symonne Singleton (Center on Budget and Policy Priorities) and Alicia Huguelet (Center on Budget and Policy Priorities)
HR1 provisions that are adding new administrative requirements to SNAP are taking effect, putting additional pressure on states to demonstrate strong outcomes, particularly around payment error rates, work requirements, timeliness, and caseworker efficiency. To help states navigate the vendor landscape, the Safety Net Response Network conducted a survey of SNAP vendor solutions from February through April 2026. The goal was straightforward: to give state agencies a clearer picture of what tools exist, what problems they’re built to solve, and if they are currently being used by any state agencies.
The response was strong. We received 21 submissions across 19 vendor organizations, covering a broad range of solution categories: income verification, risk assessment (including pre-authorization review or post-certification data analysis), document management, client portal or activity-reporting tools, and non-income data verification. The variety reflects the range of challenges that states are addressing, as well as the growing ecosystem of vendors who are supporting states in meeting these needs.
The full survey results are now publicly available, based on the information that vendors provided.
The survey provides answers to top questions that state agencies have around product offerings, users, pricing model, timelines, automation technologies, integrations, user research, reporting, and which states are currently using each solution. Additionally, the survey includes screenshots of tools’ user interface and of the analytics and reporting solutions, as well as documentation and recorded demonstrations, if available.
Whether you’re trying to reduce your state’s payment error rate, streamline work requirement tracking, or improve caseworker workflows, browse the results and see what options are available. If a solution seems to meet your needs, vendor contact information is provided so that your team can follow up directly. With implementation timelines in motion, it’s an important time to explore your options for SNAP solutions for the present and the future.
