NIGP 05568: Monitors, Computerized and Wireless (Including Equipment Utilization, Engine/Driver Performance, Brakes, Lights, Rpm, Temperature, etc.)

NIGP 05568 Monitors, Computerized and Wireless (Including Equipment Utilization, Engine/Driver Performance, Brakes, Lights, RPM, Temperature, Etc.) is an Item code that describes state and local procurement of real-time vehicle and equipment monitoring hardware and software—GPS tracking systems, on-board diagnostic devices, fleet telematics platforms, and related sensors that capture performance data on engines, braking systems, fuel consumption, temperature, and route optimization. Recent solicitations show demand concentrated in traffic signal monitoring and coordination equipment, refuse fleet optimization and tracking systems, and bridge inspection or equipment maintenance monitoring. Collin County Information Technology Department, Cuyahoga County Department of Purchasing, the City of Tucson Environmental & General Services Department, and the City of Atlanta represent the mix of issuing bodies—county IT departments, municipal environmental services, and city finance/procurement offices—that acquire these systems. The geographic footprint spans Texas, Ohio, and Arizona in the most recent postings, with activity also reported in Florida.

Representative recent opportunities include Collin County's IFB 2026-390 for computers and peripherals (including monitors and data-equipped mobile devices), with bids due October 15, 2026, targeting an estimated annual contract value of $1.2 million and covering approximately 600 computers per year across the County's 3,000-device Windows environment; and the City of Tucson's RFP for Refuse and Recycling Collection Fleet Route Management Optimization software and GPS vehicle locating systems to track approximately 100 refuse vehicles across multiple collection routes, with vendor-supplied on-board mobile devices, real-time navigation, work order tracking, and historical data management interfacing with existing Asset Works, Arc View, and Hexagon EAM systems. Additional activity includes Cuyahoga County's sole-source procurement (RQ 16435) for five hotspots with ICAC Ohio Aperture access and integrated monitoring software platforms (OpsWatch, Nightshift, General Wisdom, I.P. Shredder), and the City of Brownsville's IFB for traffic signal modernization, which includes GPS-based time synchronization equipment and radar-based vehicular traffic detection systems (Wavetronix SmartSensor Matrix or equivalent) at 33 signalized intersections, with bids due May 21, 2026.
