NIGP 03106: Air Conditioning and Heating: Central Units, and Parts and Accessories Not Individually Itemized

NIGP 03106 Air Conditioning And Heating: Central Units, And Parts And Accessories Not Individually Itemized is an Item code covering procurement of complete HVAC systems, replacement components, and accessories across state and local facilities. State and local governments buy ready-to-install central air conditioning and heating units, compressors, condensers, fan motors, refrigerant, filters, dampers, and related parts to maintain climate control in correctional facilities, water treatment plants, municipal offices, schools, transit facilities, and utility buildings. Installation labor and commissioning services are frequently bundled with equipment procurement.

The Texas Department of Criminal Justice dominates recent activity under this code, issuing more than two dozen solicitations in the past six months for HVAC equipment and installation at individual prison and jail units (Clemens, Coffield, Wynne, Goree, Wainwright, Ferguson, Ellis, Hughes, Garza East, Bradshaw, Murray, Middleton, Stringfellow, Gist, Holliday, Lychner, Lopez, Sanchez, and Briscoe) and the Facilities Central Warehouse. Other issuing bodies include Orange County, Florida (a $2.89 million building automation and fire/smoke damper retrofit at a corrections booking center, IFB Y26-718, due October 20, 2026); the City of Wheat Ridge, Colorado (mini-split units for a public park building, RFP 2648, due October 2, 2026); the State of Georgia (central AC replacement, RFP 2027_01, due October 23, 2026); the State of Oregon (HVAC water treatment services across 24 DAS-owned facilities, RFP S1070000017049, maximum $5 million, due October 5, 2026); Caltrans District 7 in Los Angeles (boiler inspection and maintenance, restricted to SB/DVBE, IFPQ 07A6471, due October 22, 2026); school districts in Michigan and Georgia; and county/municipal facilities across Florida, Pennsylvania, Georgia, and Illinois. Activity clusters in Texas, where TDCJ is replacing aging systems and upgrading inmate housing across its institutional network. Response dates on open solicitations range from late September through mid-November 2026, with a small number of past-due individual procurements. The code spans both equipment-only bids and full turnkey installation with warranties and training, reflecting a mix of capital replacements and maintenance replenishment across state prison systems, municipal water and corrections infrastructure, and K–12 facility upgrades.
