NIGP 49019: Density Gradient Equipment: Fractionators, Mixers, etc.

NIGP 49019 Density Gradient Equipment: Fractionators, Mixers, Etc., an Item code, covers mixer parts, accessories, and related equipment that state and local governments procure for industrial and laboratory operations. The recent opportunities block shows state and local issuing bodies soliciting under this code include county utilities departments, school districts, and county health agencies. Pinellas County Utilities in Florida posted an ITQ for Invent Mixer Parts & Accessories on June 23, 2026, with a response deadline of June 30, 2026, referencing an existing blanket purchase agreement under a prior ITB and indicating renewal or continuation work; place of performance spans Pinellas County and Clewiston City, Florida. Klein Independent School District in Harris County, Texas issued an RFP for Career Technical Education and Advanced Academics instructional resources, which encompasses a broad range of CTE program areas and supplies, with an electronic proposal deadline of June 5, 2026 through the Bonfire purchasing system, contract award recommendations by August 10, 2026, and an initial one-year term with four optional one-year renewals; the district encourages HUB, MWBE, and SBE vendor participation and requires workers' compensation and general liability insurance with minimum $1,000,000 coverage. The County of Santa Clara issued a Request for Information on April 7, 2026 for a Public Health Lab Information Management Solution Replacement, with a response deadline of April 22, 2026, seeking a modern, scalable lab information management system compliant with regulatory requirements.

Recent activity under this code appears limited and geographically dispersed across Florida, Texas, and California, with no clear pattern of repeat buyers or concentrated procurement volume. The three opportunities span different asset classes and customer types — equipment parts for utilities, instructional materials and equipment for schools, and software-as-a-service for public health — suggesting the code encompasses a heterogeneous set of industrial and institutional procurements rather than a cohesive product or service line. The compressed six-day proposal window for the Pinellas County Utilities ITQ and the reference to an existing BPA signal renewal activity rather than new market entry. Absence of estimated contract values, evaluation criteria, or pre-proposal deadlines in most solicitation summaries limits visibility into deal size and competitive intensity under this code.
