NIGP 44529: Extractors, Pullers, and Inserters

NIGP 44529 Extractors, Pullers, and Inserters, an Item code, covers powered mechanical equipment state and local governments procure to pull, extract, or insert components in vehicle, infrastructure, and equipment operations. Recent solicitations show municipalities buying used tractors equipped with power take-off (PTO) systems to drive wet-line kits on sewer vacuum trailers, and airport authorities implementing turnkey Flight Information Display Systems (FIDS) that integrate display hardware with cloud-hosted software platforms. The scope spans both heavy-duty powered pulling equipment for utility operations and specialized display and insertion systems that connect peripheral devices through standard interfaces like HDMI and API integrations. Issuing bodies include municipal utility departments, city procurement offices, and airport authorities managing terminal infrastructure.

The City of Pembroke Pines, Florida, posted an IFB (PSUT26QQ03) on August 20, 2026 for a used Cummins-powered tractor with 80,000-pound gross vehicle weight rating and PTO capability, with responses due August 27, 2026. Provo City, Utah, through Provo Airport, issued an RFP (PR2026001033) on July 16, 2026 for a turnkey FIDS solution supporting five existing gates with expansion to ten gates by 2029, with proposals due August 11, 2026 and pre-proposal meeting held July 28, 2026. Recent activity concentrates in Florida and Utah; no additional states appear in the opportunities block. The code sees sporadic activity across municipal utilities and specialized airport operations rather than sustained procurement volume from a narrow set of repeat buyers.
