NIGP 49078: Pumps, Vacuum and Pressure/Vacuum

NIGP 49078 Pumps, Vacuum and Pressure/Vacuum, an Item code, covers the procurement of specialized pump systems and modules that state and local governments deploy across water infrastructure, emergency response, research, and facility operations. Recent solicitations show purchasing activity in three distinct categories: high-precision laboratory syringe pump modules for research and educational use, trailer-mounted centrifugal pump systems for emergency and bypass operations, and comprehensive wastewater pump station maintenance, repair, and equipment renewal services. The issuing bodies span university systems, county utilities departments, and municipal governments, with Seminole County, Florida appearing twice in the recent record as a repeat buyer of wastewater pump station rehabilitation services and Texas A&M University posting multiple competitive solicitations for precision pump equipment.
