NIGP 24096: Timers, Mechanical

NIGP 24096 Timers, Mechanical is an Item code covering mechanical timing devices procured by state and local government entities, though recent solicitation activity under this code is minimal. State and local governments acquire mechanical timers for operational, safety, and regulatory compliance uses across law enforcement, facilities management, and equipment operations, typically as components within broader equipment procurements or standalone utility purchases. When mechanical timers are solicited, they appear most frequently in law enforcement and public safety contexts where equipment specifications call for reliable mechanical timekeeping independent of electronic systems.

Sourcewell, a Minnesota local government cooperative, issued RFP #061626 on May 12, 2026 for Law Enforcement Equipment on behalf of participating entities including Franklin County, Grant County, Grays Harbor County, Chelan County, and Yakima County in Washington, along with numerous other jurisdictions and public entities across the United States and Canada, with proposals due June 16, 2026 at 3:30 p.m. Central Time. The solicitation establishes a contracting solution intended for use by thousands of governmental agencies, higher education institutions, K-12 school districts, nonprofit organizations, and tribal governments through Sourcewell's cooperative purchasing framework, though mechanical timers represent a discrete component rather than the primary procurement focus. Vendors must submit responses exclusively through the Sourcewell Procurement Portal at https://proportal.sourcewell-mn.gov and direct inquiries to Mari Vielma at rfp@sourcewell-mn.gov or 888-894-1930.
