NIGP 05567: Mounting Hardware, Automotive: Laptops, GPS, Cameras, Electronic Devices, etc.

NIGP 05567 Mounting Hardware, Automotive: Laptops, GPS, Cameras, Electronic Devices, Etc., Item, describes hardware mounts and installation components for electronic equipment integrated into municipal vehicles and facilities. State and local governments procure under this code to outfit fleet vehicles with GPS trackers, mobile data terminals, cameras, and communications equipment, and to install surveillance systems in public buildings. Recent solicitations show municipalities acquiring mounting hardware as part of larger integrated systems—GPS vehicle tracking solutions, fleet route optimization software, in-car and body-worn camera systems, and surveillance infrastructure—where the hardware represents a line-item component of comprehensive technology deployments rather than standalone procurement.

Activity centers on mid-sized and large municipal fleet operators and public safety agencies. The City of Tucson issued two major solicitations—one for refuse-collection fleet route management optimization (RFP 260201, proposals due August 5, 2026) and another for comprehensive GPS vehicle tracking and management across approximately 1,005 municipal fleet vehicles (RFP 260201, issued through the Axia Cooperative Purchasing Program)—both requiring GPS devices, mobile mounting solutions, and integration with existing fleet-management systems. The City of Alexandria issued an RFP on behalf of DASH (Dougherty Area Transit System) for a Computer-Aided Dispatch/Automatic Vehicle Location system serving a 115-vehicle fleet (proposals due August 18, 2026). The New London Board of Education solicited UniFi camera equipment for four school locations (RFP 202614CONL, response deadline May 20, 2026, though this date appears inconsistent with the July 14 posting and was likely an archive date). The City of Cleveland, Georgia Police Department sought in-car and body-worn camera hardware with cloud storage and redaction software (proposals due June 10, 2026). Additional activity includes Forsyth County Schools' request for bus installation services covering radios, GPS systems, cameras, and lighting across over 300 buses (RFP P26-07, due April 17, 2026), the Georgia Department of Administrative Services' GPS telematics pilot covering 5,000 vehicles with Phase 2 expansion potential to 20,000+ vehicles (proposals due April 13, 2026), and the Santa Clara County Library District's bookmobile procurement requiring Wi-Fi infrastructure and electrical mounting solutions (RFP-LIB-FY26-0530, due March 4, 2026). Activity spans Arizona, Connecticut, Virginia, Georgia, Florida, California, and Texas, with recent concentrated posting in the second and third quarters of 2026.
