NIGP 06058: Governors, Engine and Road Speed

NIGP 06058 Governors, Engine And Road Speed, an Item code, covers engine governors and engine speed control equipment that state and local governments acquire primarily for fleet management and regulatory compliance applications. Based on recent solicitations, state and local buyers are actively procuring Intelligent Speed Assistance (ISA) systems — aftermarket or integrated electronic devices that monitor vehicle speed and alert or restrict drivers when they exceed posted limits or preset thresholds. These systems typically integrate with law enforcement databases and must meet data security, cybersecurity, and liability insurance requirements. The issuing-body mix includes state motor vehicle administration departments and multi-jurisdictional cooperative purchasing vehicles. Maryland Motor Vehicle Administration is the most visible recent buyer, preparing to implement ISA systems mandated by state law for certain drivers with suspended or revoked licenses seeking restricted driving privileges.

Maryland Motor Vehicle Administration issued a Request for Information (RFI #BPM058893) due October 6, 2026, soliciting qualified vendors capable of manufacturing, distributing, servicing, and supporting ISA systems across 24 state branches, with capability to integrate systems into MVA and law enforcement databases, maintain product liability insurance of at least $1 million per occurrence and $3 million aggregate, and comply with federal and state data handling requirements prohibiting international data storage or transmission. Sourcewell, operating under Minnesota local government authority on behalf of multiple participating counties in Washington state and other U.S. jurisdictions, issued an RFP (#061626) due June 16, 2026, for Law Enforcement Equipment available to governmental agencies and public entities nationwide; the scope encompasses equipment solutions for law enforcement but does not specifically identify speed-control or ISA components in available documentation. The Maryland RFI explicitly encourages responses from women, veteran, and minority-owned small businesses. Activity under this code appears limited to state-level and cooperative purchasing initiatives in the mid-Atlantic and Pacific Northwest regions.
