NIGP 20737: CRT Holders, Cases, Glare Screens, Locks, etc.

NIGP 20737 Cart Holders, Cases, Glare Screens, Locks, Etc., an Item code, encompasses a wide range of technology infrastructure, networking, and security hardware that state and local governments procure to support IT operations, facility upgrades, and cybersecurity compliance. Recent opportunities show substantial activity in specialized network equipment (CIENA and Juniper routers and switches), uninterruptible power supplies (UPS and battery systems), data platforms (Cisco HyperFlex), access control and security systems (door locks, electronic holdings), and digital display technology (interactive screens, tablets). State and local issuing bodies soliciting under this code include the Maryland Department of Information Technology (DoIT) procuring for multiple state agencies and facilities, county airports (Orange County/John Wayne Airport, Milwaukee Mitchell International), school districts and community colleges (Salt Lake City School District, Cape Cod Community College, Fairfax County Public Schools), state fire and forestry agencies (CAL FIRE), correctional and juvenile detention systems (Harris County), and various state departments of human services and health. Maryland DoIT is the dominant repeat buyer in recent postings, issuing multiple Small Business Reserve solicitations restricted to certified small-business Master Contractors under its Hardware and Associated Equipment and Services 2012 master contract (060B2490022), typically with prices as the primary evaluation criterion.

Geographic activity concentrates in Maryland (reflecting DoIT's ongoing network modernization across state facilities in Crownsville, Glen Burnie, Baltimore, and multiple county locations), California (CAL FIRE accessories, Orange County airport systems), Texas (Harris County detention facilities), and scattered municipal and educational procurement across Wisconsin, Massachusetts, Utah, and Virginia. Representative recent opportunities include the County of Orange, John Wayne Airport's RFP for Common Use Passenger Processing and Common Use Self Service Systems Replacement & Support Services (solicitation 2802928904MR, response deadline January 28, 2026), covering 238 CUPPS workstations and 118 CUSS kiosks across 11.7 million annual passengers; CAL FIRE's RFQ for X-NAUT accessories including 500 units of Gripstand Magpower units and 800 units of Double Ball components (PCR-26-0346, due October 14, 2026); Maryland DoIT's recurring CIENA equipment and managed support renewals and expansions across Department of Human Services, State Department of Assessments and Taxation, and other agencies (multiple PORFP contracts with June–August 2026 deadlines); and Harris County's ITB for door lock replacement services and ASSA Mogul cylinders across juvenile detention facilities (ITB 26-0121, due June 15, 2026). Maryland's Small Business Reserve set-asides and Master Contractor restrictions create a concentrated, recurring procurement channel; national activity includes airport systems, correctional infrastructure, higher-education IT modernization, and state network infrastructure upgrades with substantial equipment and warranty components.
