NIGP 25780: Security Equipment, Defense and Homeland Security

NIGP 25780 Security Equipment, Defense And Homeland Security is an Item code encompassing the security systems and services state and local governments deploy to protect critical infrastructure, government facilities, and public assets. Recent solicitations show state and local buyers purchasing three distinct categories of security work: managed cybersecurity and Security Operations Center (SOC) services providing 24/7 threat monitoring, incident response, and vulnerability management for municipal IT environments; physical security systems including access control, electronic door locks, video surveillance, and intercom infrastructure for government buildings and detention facilities; and security equipment ranging from law enforcement technology such as body cameras, license plate readers, and drones to detection systems for chemical, biological, and radiological threats. Issuing bodies span city procurement offices (Atlanta, Meriden), county governments (Orange County, Collin County, Pinellas County), state departments (Texas DIR, New Jersey Treasury), and special-purpose authorities such as airport operators and corrections agencies. Texas Department of Information Resources and New Jersey Department of Treasury appear as standout repeat buyers using cooperative purchasing vehicles to serve statewide customer bases.
