NIGP 20562: Motherboards, Environmentally Certified Products

NIGP 20562 Motherboards, Environmentally Certified Products is an Item code under which state and local governments procure integrated classroom and conference room technology systems, including wall- or ceiling-mounted projectors, interactive document cameras, control panels, audio equipment, and related infrastructure components sourced from major manufacturers and installed as part of comprehensive technology services. Valencia College District Board of Trustees in Florida issued RFP 202626 in April 2026 seeking a qualified firm to provide turnkey classroom and conference room technology services across nine campus locations, encompassing equipment selection, installation, programming, maintenance, and repair across approximately 900 rooms with annual upgrade cycles of 50–75 installations. The solicitation reflects state and local education procurement focused on technology integration and life-cycle support rather than component supply alone; the College averaged $1.6 million in annual spending over the prior five fiscal years and requires contractors to maintain local service capabilities, dedicated programming staff, same-day emergency response, comprehensive warranty and support agreements, and integration with institutional asset management systems.

The code shows activity in Florida education sectors. Valencia College's RFP required proposals by April 30, 2026, with a non-mandatory pre-proposal meeting scheduled for April 8, 2026, a questions deadline of April 21, 2026, and evaluation phases planned for May 12 and May 19, 2026. Respondents must demonstrate five years of active experience completing at least ten similar projects within the prior three years, carry General Liability insurance of $1,000,000 per occurrence, Professional Liability coverage of $1,000,000, and submit discount schedules against manufacturer's suggested retail prices for preferred equipment lines including Panasonic, Sony, Chief, Da-Lite, Extron, Elmo, JBL, Crestron, and Crown. The contract structure—a three-year base term with two optional one-year extensions for a cumulative maximum of five years—reflects state and local preference for multi-year technology services partnerships rather than transactional component purchases.
