NIGP 12018: Boat Components (Not Otherwise Classified)

NIGP 12018 Boat Components (Not Otherwise Classified), Item code, encompasses marine equipment procurement by state and local governments, including complete vessel purchases, outboard motors, specialized boat lift systems, and integrated marine electronics and components for law enforcement, recreation, and port security operations. State and local issuing bodies soliciting under this code include county sheriffs' offices, county parks and recreation divisions, state environmental and water resources agencies, and cooperative purchasing vehicles serving multi-jurisdictional law enforcement networks. Recent opportunities reflect a mix of ready-built vessel acquisitions—27-foot center console aluminum patrol boats with integrated radar, thermal imaging, and communication systems; tournament-approved fiberglass ski boats with inboard engines and trailers; and specialized inflatable jet boats—alongside component and subsystem procurement such as outboard motors, gyro stabilizers, boat lift installations, and frame fabrication for existing hull platforms.

Geographic activity clusters in the Southeast and Pacific Northwest, with standout repeat buyers in Florida (Collier County Parks and Recreation and Collier County Sheriff's Office issuing multiple ski boat and dock infrastructure solicitations in 2026) and Georgia (Chatham County Marine Patrol procuring both a complete 27-foot patrol response vessel and Mercury outboard motors). Representative recent opportunities include Chatham County, Georgia issuing an ITB for one marine patrol response vessel due August 10, 2026, funded entirely by the 2025 DHS/FEMA Port Security Grant Program with a 30 percent M/WBE participation goal; Collier County Parks and Recreation conducting a Quick Quote for two ski boats and trailer due April 22, 2026; Marion County Sheriff's Office, Oregon issuing an RFQ for jet boat frame fabrication due April 22, 2026; and the California Department of Water Resources soliciting a marine gyro stabilizer for vessel stabilization due March 20, 2026. Sourcewell, a Minnesota-based cooperative purchasing entity, issued an RFP for Law Enforcement Equipment on behalf of participating counties across Washington, Oregon, and other jurisdictions, with proposals due June 16, 2026. Procurement notice types vary—ITBs dominate fixed-specification acquisitions, RFQs and RFPs support equipment integration and custom fabrication, and Quick Quotes expedite routine purchases for recreational programs.
