NIGP 12011: Animal Capture Guns and Accessories

NIGP 12011 Animal Capture Guns and Accessories, an Item code, covers specialized firearms and related equipment used by state and local law enforcement and animal control agencies for wildlife management and controlled animal capture operations. The scope encompasses capture guns, tranquilizer rifles, restraint devices, ammunition designed for non-lethal animal immobilization, and accessory components such as scopes, holsters, and maintenance kits. State and local governments procure this equipment through their public safety departments, animal control divisions, and wildlife management agencies to support humane animal handling, officer safety, and operational effectiveness in field environments.

Sourcewell, a Minnesota local government cooperative, is seeking proposals for a multistate law enforcement equipment contracting vehicle (RFP #061626, due June 16, 2026) intended to serve participating counties in Washington state—including Franklin, Grant, Grays Harbor, Chelan, and Yakima Counties—along with governmental agencies, school districts, tribal governments, and nonprofit organizations across the United States and Canada. The cooperative purchasing structure allows vendors awarded under this vehicle to supply animal capture equipment and related law enforcement gear to thousands of potential public-sector end-users through a standardized framework agreement. Proposals must be submitted through the Sourcewell Procurement Portal by 3:30 p.m. Central Time; inquiries should be directed to Mari Vielma at rfp@sourcewell-mn.gov or 888-894-1930. No set-aside designations, award values, or incumbent vendor information are disclosed in available solicitation documentation.
