NIGP 20878: Redaction, De-Identification Software

NIGP 20878 Redaction, De-Identification Software is an Item code that encompasses enterprise software platforms for data protection, system modernization, and operational consolidation across state and local government. The scope of work solicited under this code spans far broader than redaction and de-identification alone: recent opportunities show state and local buyers procuring integrated enterprise resource planning systems, human resources information systems, safety data management platforms, individualized education program delivery systems, school nutrition software, code enforcement workflows, and data backup and security infrastructure. Issuing bodies include state education agencies and departments of natural resources, county school districts, cities, and special-purpose regional districts. The City of Detroit Office of Contracting and Procurement, the Washington State Office of Superintendent of Public Instruction, the Washington Department of Fish and Wildlife, the City of Newnan in Georgia, DeKalb County School District in Georgia, the Savannah-Chatham County Public School System, and the City of Apopka in Florida represent the mix of jurisdictions currently active under this code.
