NIGP 19583: Wall Clocks, Electric

NIGP 19583 Wall Clocks, Electric is an Item code covering electric clock products and associated labor services that state and local governments procure to support facility operations, timekeeping, and building systems integration. Based on recent solicitation activity, wall clocks are typically procured as part of broader technology parts and equipment term contracts rather than as standalone commodity buys. Issuing bodies include school districts and county governments consolidating technology infrastructure procurement. The Fairfax County Public Schools and Fairfax County Government jointly solicited wall clocks as one of 15 product categories within a five-year term contract (IFB 2000004307, due April 20, 2026) that also included administrative phones, digital clocks, electric strikes, batteries, smoke detectors, motion sensors, and ceiling speakers, with associated labor services supporting approximately 183,000 students and 25,000 employees across 250+ schools and work sites. Bidders compete on percentage discount pricing from Manufacturer's Suggested Retail Price or national standard price lists, with pricing fixed for the full five-year contract duration plus three optional one-year renewal periods.

Virginia jurisdictions, specifically the Fairfax County area, show recent procurement activity under this code. The Fairfax solicitation encompasses integration with existing systems including fire alarm (31,000+ framework components), security intrusion detection (33,000+ components), public address systems (550+), telephone and voice systems (20,000+ desktop devices), door access control (12,000+ framework components), and cable television distribution, indicating that wall clock procurement is tied to coordinated building-systems technology strategies in larger school and government operations. Bidders must provide three professional references from the last three years, proof of authorized reseller status for a minimum of three years per manufacturer, standard delivery within five business days, on-site response times of five business days for routine calls and 48 hours for emergencies, and minimum one-year warranties. An optional pre-bid conference was scheduled for April 7, 2026 at 2:00 PM Eastern Time via Zoom, with written questions due April 10, 2026.
