NIGP 47587: Tracheotomy Equipment and Accessories (Including Tracheal Tubes, Masks, etc.)

NIGP 47587 Tracheotomy Equipment And Accessories (Including Tracheal Tubes, Masks, Etc.) is an Item code that captures respiratory protection, medical surveillance, equipment testing, and facility maintenance services rather than the tracheotomy-specific consumables its legacy title suggests. Recent state and local solicitations under this code show activity spanning occupational health examinations, fire suppression system inspection and testing, respirator fit-testing equipment calibration, and law enforcement equipment procurement through cooperative purchasing vehicles. Issuing bodies include county public works departments, state transportation agencies, county sheriff-coroner offices, and cooperative purchasing organizations serving multi-jurisdictional purchasing groups across states and Canadian provinces. The scope of work reflects workplace health and safety compliance—medical examinations aligned with regulatory standards, equipment certification and calibration services meeting OSHA and NIOSH requirements, and facility system inspections with documentation and record-keeping obligations.

Recent activity clusters in California and Washington. The County of Orange, California has posted multiple opportunities: an IFB for cleaning and calibration of TSI PortaCount Pro Respirator Fit Testers (ten units over three years with two renewal options, closing May 28, 2026) and an IFB for CO2 fire suppression and gas detection inspection services at a central utilities facility (due October 7, 2026, with preference available for local small business and disabled veteran business enterprise vendors). The Washington State Department of Transportation issued an RFP on behalf of Washington State Ferries for occupational medical surveillance services—baseline, periodic, follow-up, and exit examinations for four personnel categories across 14 Washington locations (proposals due October 9, 2026, with cost accounting for 40 percent of scoring and non-cost capability factors weighted at 60 percent). Sourcewell, a Minnesota local government unit and service cooperative, posted RFP 061626 for Law Enforcement Equipment on behalf of participating entities in Washington state and beyond, with proposals due June 16, 2026 through the Sourcewell Procurement Portal, serving thousands of governmental agencies, school districts, nonprofit organizations, and tribal governments across the United States and Canada.
