NIGP 57890: Taxidermy Equipment and Supplies

NIGP 57890 Taxidermy Equipment and Supplies, an Item code, covers specialized equipment and materials used in taxidermy and wildlife preservation work that state and local governments procure for museums, educational institutions, parks, and natural history programs. Based on recent state and local solicitations, this code captures the narrow slice of government procurement focused on animal preparation, preservation, mounting hardware, chemical treatments, and related technical supplies for taxidermy operations. Issuing bodies under this code include municipal parks departments, county recreation facilities, and educational institutions with natural history or zoological missions.

The recent opportunity record does not support active procurement activity under NIGP 57890. The two posted opportunities in the source—Rob Sullivan Park irrigation improvements (City of DeBary, Florida, posted October 2026) and Law Enforcement Equipment through Sourcewell (posted May 2026)—do not align with taxidermy equipment and supplies purchasing. No state or local jurisdiction has posted a solicitation for taxidermy goods or services within the available recent-opportunities window. Without documented recent activity, geographic spread and representative opportunities cannot be characterized from the source material.
