NIGP 54520: Filtering Equipment and Machinery

NIGP 54520 Filtering Equipment and Machinery, an Item code, covers the supply of specialized equipment and component parts used in municipal and county operations, including filtration systems, mixer apparatus, hoisting machinery, and ancillary equipment. State and local governments procure under this code for utility operations, convention center rigging, law enforcement support, and industrial process equipment. Issuing bodies span city governments, county utilities, county convention authorities, and cooperative purchasing consortia representing multiple jurisdictions; procurement notice types range from sole-source determinations to competitive ITQs, IFBs, and cooperative RFPs. Recent activity shows a mix of replacement parts procurement, specialized equipment acquisition for recurring operational needs, and cooperative purchasing frameworks intended to serve broad participating-entity rosters.

Geographic spread includes Oregon, Florida, Minnesota, and Washington, with recent opportunities representing single-jurisdiction procurements alongside multi-state cooperative vehicles. Representative solicitations include the City of Salem, Oregon's sole-source acquisition of a Puma 2400 ECO Machine from USG Umweltservice (contract value $424,494.70, award anticipated July 16, 2026); Pinellas County Utilities' ITQ 26-0647 for Invent Mixer Parts and Accessories with performance spanning Pinellas County and Clewiston City, Florida, due June 30, 2026; Orange County, Florida's IFB Y26-605 for rigging motors, hoist bodies, connectors, and motor chains for the Convention Center, requiring 150 units of four specific items, due March 5, 2026; and Sourcewell's RFP #061626 for Law Enforcement Equipment on behalf of participating Washington counties and entities nationwide, due June 16, 2026, through the Sourcewell Procurement Portal. Set-asides and preference programs vary by jurisdiction; Orange County waived reciprocal preference but offers Service Disabled Veteran preference under specified bid-amount thresholds.
