NIGP 28543: Induction Heating Equipment, Parts and Accessories

NIGP 28543 Induction Heating Equipment, Parts and Accessories is an Item code covering specialized electrical and industrial heating components and systems. State and local governments procure under this code primarily for traffic management infrastructure, facility maintenance, and specialized equipment repair—though recent opportunities show broader electrical equipment, parts, and supplies solicitations that encompass but extend beyond the narrow induction-heating scope. Issuing bodies include independent school districts (Northside ISD in San Antonio), county transportation and public works departments across multi-county regions (Northern California counties including Sacramento, Butte, Placer, and Yuba), municipal facilities departments (City of Scottsdale), and transit authorities (Charlotte Area Transit System). Cooperative purchasing vehicles also appear—Sourcewell, a Minnesota local government unit, has issued a law enforcement equipment RFP that reaches thousands of participating entities across the United States and Canada.

Recent solicitations reflect demand for electrical equipment maintenance, lighting parts inventories, traffic detection system repair, and access control/camera infrastructure support rather than standalone induction heating equipment. Representative opportunities include the City of Scottsdale's February 2026 IFB for electrical lighting parts (ballasts, transformers, capacitors, lamps) with a February 26 response date; a multi-county Northern California IFB issued in February 2026 for inductive loop detector repair and replacement services across 11 counties with a March 10 deadline; and Northside Independent School District's June 2026 IFB for electrical equipment, parts, supplies, rentals, repairs, and services due July 1, 2026. Activity clusters in Texas (school districts), Northern California (multi-county transportation), Arizona (municipal facilities), and through regional cooperative purchasing frameworks. Contract structures typically run one to three years with optional renewals, require local presence or storefront availability, demand compliance with federal transit standards where FTA funds apply, and emphasize preventive maintenance and rapid response performance metrics rather than equipment procurement alone.
