About NIGP 68006
NIGP 68006 Ammunition Handling Systems (Aircraft, Tanks, Etc.), Item tier, does not align with the scope of work state and local governments are actually procuring under this code. Recent solicitations show that jurisdictions are instead buying body armor, firearms, ammunition (live and less-lethal), less-lethal devices such as gases and grenades, optics, holsters, duty gear, and law enforcement training equipment — a law enforcement and public safety protective-equipment portfolio bearing no relationship to aircraft or tank ammunition systems. State and local issuing bodies soliciting under this code include city police departments (Charlotte), county sheriff and law enforcement agencies (Rockland County, New York), county education service centers serving multiple school districts (Region 14 ESC in Texas), and cooperative purchasing consortiums making contracts available statewide and nationally. The scope spans supply of NIJ-compliant body armor with sizing and fitting services, manufacturer-branded live ammunition across Federal, PMC, Remington, Sig Sauer, Vista/CCI/Speer, and Winchester lines, less-lethal ammunition from Combined Tactical Systems and Pepperball, and less-lethal devices including grenades and protective gases.
Recent activity concentrates in Texas and New York, with secondary activity in North Carolina. Rockland County, New York issued an accelerated Request for Bid (RFBRC2026035) for live ammunition, less-lethal ammunition, and less-lethal gases and grenades with a response deadline of April 23, 2026, available to law enforcement agencies across New York State through cooperative purchasing; Region 14 ESC in West Texas posted a cooperative RFP (RFP26S1097) for firearms, ammunition, optics, less-lethal products, and training equipment available nationwide through OMNIA Partners with a response deadline of June 4, 2026 and an estimated annual volume of approximately $50 million across participating agencies; and the City of Charlotte issued a solicitation (2692026221) for NIJ-compliant body armor for sworn personnel with a response deadline of July 29, 2026.
