NIGP 41526: Cases: Laboratory, Museum, Specimen Storage, etc.

NIGP 41526 Cases: Laboratory, Museum, Specimen Storage, Etc., Item code, encompasses specimen collection and storage supplies, histology and toxicology materials, and related laboratory consumables that state and local governments procure for correctional supervision, public health testing, and educational research. Recent opportunities show issuing bodies spanning regional purchasing cooperatives, county health departments, county correctional agencies, and multi-jurisdictional cooperative purchasing vehicles. The work involves sourcing supplies for on-site specimen collection and drug testing programs, histology and toxicology laboratory materials, and classroom laboratory storage and supply items — a mix reflecting both public-health and educational laboratory demand.

Activity under this code draws from Texas (Region 7 Purchasing Cooperative classroom supplies RFP CLSF2628, with $21,568,516 estimated expenditures over two years and a May 26, 2026 response deadline), Illinois (Cook County histology and toxicology supplies re-bid 2457-09110 RR due July 22, 2026), Texas again (Denton County Community Supervision and Corrections Department specimen collection and drug testing RFP 262911 due June 11, 2026), and a multi-state cooperative procurement through Sourcewell on behalf of Washington counties including Franklin, Grant, Grays Harbor, Chelan, and Yakima counties (Law Enforcement Equipment RFP 061626 due June 16, 2026, available through the Sourcewell Procurement Portal). The recent-opportunity set reflects regional and state-level procurement vehicles as well as individual county and local-government departments, with geographic spread across Texas, Illinois, Washington, and other participating jurisdictions through cooperative frameworks.
