About NIGP 55081
NIGP 55081 Traffic Controls And Equipment, Electric Parts, Item, encompasses LED pedestrian countdown signals, traffic signal controllers and cabinets, battery backup systems, traffic detection equipment, and related electrical components that state and local governments procure to build, upgrade, and maintain signalized intersections. Recent solicitations show governments buying specific branded hardware—LEOTEK pedestrian signals, Econolite controllers, Wavetronix detection sensors—reflecting a market driven by technical compatibility requirements and existing infrastructure lock-in. State departments of transportation (notably Texas), counties, and cities across Florida, Georgia, Texas, Colorado, and Kansas dominate recent activity, with repeat buyers including the Texas Department of Transportation across multiple districts and regional municipalities in greater Houston and central Florida.
The State of Texas issued an IFB for 320 units of LEOTEK LED pedestrian countdown signals (Model TSL-PED-16-SPC-V1 TP16HCD4F96) due July 24, 2026 under solicitation INF20260259, while the City of Orlando released RFP26-0163 on July 16 for a comprehensive red-light camera traffic infraction detector system covering 80 intersections with proposals due September 17, 2026—a five-year full-service contract with optional ten-year term that requires inheriting existing infrastructure and providing 24/7 operational support. The Board of County Commissioners of Okaloosa County, Florida issued ITB PW 68-26 on July 13 for maintenance of traffic and pavement markings across 124 line items requiring FDOT prequalification, due August 5, 2026. Cameron County's Light Synchronization Project (due July 28, 2026) and the City of Brownsville's traffic monitoring and management contracts (due May 28, 2026 and May 21, 2026 respectively) represent mid-sized modernization efforts deploying advanced detection systems and GPS-synchronized controllers at multiple locations. The Texas Department of Transportation and its regional districts (Waco, Lubbock, Amarillo, Abilene, San Angelo) account for substantial proprietary procurements requiring exact model conformance to NEMA TS/2 standards, with multiple solicitations from June through late July seeking controllers, UPS backup systems, cabinet assemblies, and sensor equipment at single-location distribution centers, all emphasizing 18-calendar-day warranty repair timelines and Material Producer List pre-qualification.
