NIGP 12074: Pumps, Marine

NIGP 12074 Pumps, Marine (Item) covers specialized pumping equipment for fluid handling and irrigation applications that state and local governments procure for municipal water systems, golf courses, and other public infrastructure. Recent solicitations show two distinct purchasing patterns: direct acquisitions of specific submersible pump models through sole-source and waived-competitive awards, and labor-intensive pump station removal and replacement projects that bundle equipment supply with installation and site-specific engineering. Issuing bodies include municipalities (City of DeLand, City of St. Petersburg) and cooperative purchasing vehicles serving multi-jurisdictional public sector needs. The code appears to see limited and episodic activity rather than sustained recurring demand, with procurement concentrated around capital replacement cycles for aging irrigation and water-handling infrastructure.

Recent activity spans Florida and the upper midwest. The City of DeLand posted a sole-source procurement (ITSS2603) on January 20, 2026 for a Flexpump P212GH submersible flex drive pump with a two-business-day response window, designating Pumpbiz Inc. as the sole qualified source. The City of St. Petersburg issued an IFB (IFB26278) on August 6, 2026 for complete disassembly, removal, and replacement of an irrigation pump station at Twin Brooks Golf Course, requiring bidders to submit BEP Letter of Intent and Non-Use forms signaling Florida's Business Enterprise Program participation. Sourcewell, a Minnesota cooperative purchasing unit, released RFP #061626 due June 16, 2026 to establish a law enforcement equipment contracting solution available to participating entities across the United States and Canada, though this listing appears misclassified under the marine pumps code and likely addresses equipment outside the scope of pump procurement.
