NIGP 25719: Aviation Equipment, CBRNE

NIGP 25719 Aviation Equipment, CBRNE (Item) encompasses aviation training systems, simulators, and aircraft engine components that state and local governments procure to support aviation education programs. State and local buyers under this code are primarily school districts and technical colleges establishing or maintaining aviation instruction curricula, acquiring complete training systems that integrate flight simulation software, hardware platforms, cockpit training devices, and replacement engine components for hands-on instruction. The mix of issuing bodies reflects regional aviation education infrastructure: school districts in Florida (Manatee County and Polk County) and state technical colleges in Georgia (Augusta Technical College) dominate recent activity, suggesting that secondary and post-secondary aviation programs drive demand under this code.

Recent opportunities show two procurement patterns. The School District of Manatee County issued a sole source procurement (260109TG, due February 23, 2026) for Avotek Aviation Training Systems, emphasizing compatibility with existing training infrastructure and proprietary system continuity. The School Board of Polk County posted a Request for Qualifications (SS14MJ0426, due March 24, 2026) for a comprehensive aviation training solution including a Basic Aviation Training Device or equivalent, Lockheed Martin Prepar3D v5 flight simulation software, TRACON air traffic control simulation, and ancillary hardware and support services. Augusta Technical College in Georgia issued an electronic Request for Quotes (82400AUT0000072, due March 24, 2026) for used Lycoming 0-320 E3D engine cores with no substitution permitted, reflecting replacement demand for legacy aircraft engine training components. Activity is concentrated in Florida and Georgia, with no set-aside or disadvantaged enterprise restrictions noted across the three solicitations.
