NIGP 02072: Planting Equipment, Drilling

NIGP 02072 Planting Equipment, Drilling is an Item code under which state and local governments procure specialized equipment for soil preparation, landscaping installation, and site development work. The recent solicitation activity under this code does not align cleanly with the NIGP description; the three most recent postings in the source include a department relocation notice (not a procurement), a cooperative purchasing vehicle for law enforcement equipment (outside the drilling and planting scope), and a school nutrition program food bid (also outside scope). None of these opportunities represent actual demand for planting or drilling equipment as the NIGP taxonomy defines it. The absence of on-scope solicitations in the recent-opportunities block suggests minimal activity under this specific Item code in the current market window.

Without substantive recent opportunities in planting equipment or drilling machinery, no geographic concentration, issuing-body pattern, or representative procurement example can be reliably identified from the source. The code does not appear to be an active pursuit priority based on available state and local solicitation data as of October 2026.
