NIGP 55763: Signage, Destination/Route

NIGP 55763 Signage, Destination/Route, an Item code, encompasses the design, fabrication, and installation of wayfinding and directional signage systems for trails, transit facilities, parks, campuses, and civic destinations. State and local governments are procuring this work through a mix of RFPs, RFQs, and ITBs from city parks departments, counties, transit authorities, airport authorities, school districts, and special-purpose districts. Issuing bodies include the City of Jackson Parks & Recreation Department, Wheat Ridge, Colorado; Pinellas County, Florida; Collin College; Harris County Toll Road Authority; Destin-Fort Walton Beach Tourism Development; Orange County Transportation Authority; Greater Orlando Aviation Authority; and Gwinnett County, among others. The scope spans concrete trail signage and trailhead markers, wayfinding systems for multi-county trail corridors, airport gateway signage, transit kiosk and station signage, campus directional systems, and custom monument signs for government facilities. Work includes design and engineering, structural steel fabrication with wind-load analysis, aluminum sign blank manufacturing, vinyl graphics and digital rendering, ADA compliance, electrical installation, and site-specific installation with erosion control and restoration.

Recent activity shows strong geographic diversity across the Southeast (Florida, Georgia), Midwest (Michigan, Wisconsin), and Southwest (Texas, Colorado), with particular concentration in Florida and Texas. Representative opportunities include the City of Jackson's Sharp Park MTB Trail Project (RFP, August 10, 2026) for 12.5 miles of trail with signage and wayfinding, budget planning estimate $434,579 for design and construction; City of Wheat Ridge's Clear Creek Trail wayfinding signage (RFP, July 30, 2026) with approximately 6–9 large directional signs and 33 smaller confirmation signs across a 65-mile multi-county trail; Pinellas County's Pinewood Cultural Park wayfinding signage (ITQ, April 16, 2026) for 52 distinct exterior signs with fixed lump-sum pricing; and Orange County, Florida's aluminum sign blanks procurement (IFB, April 30, 2026) as a five-year requirements contract with 45 line items and estimated five-year quantities up to 10,000 units per item. Collin College's three-year signage products and installation contract (ITB, April 25, 2024) covered interior and exterior signage across seven campuses with historical spending of approximately $229,500 over the prior three-year term. Set-asides include M/WBE participation goals on federal-funded projects (Harris County Toll Road, San Antonio River Authority), DBE/SBE preferences in Florida and Georgia jurisdictions, and Davis-Bacon prevailing wage applicability on FAA-funded airport work. Activity is current and ongoing, with multiple solicitations posted in the past sixty days and substantial project budgets ranging from under $50,000 for small kiosk panels to nearly $5 million for comprehensive trail and civic wayfinding systems.
