NIGP 69014: Analyzers and Accessories

NIGP 69014 Analyzers and Accessories is an Item code covering specialized measurement and monitoring equipment that state and local governments procure for water quality control, environmental compliance, industrial facility operations, and public health purposes. Recent solicitations show state and local agencies purchasing hand-held lead paint analyzers, water quality monitoring systems (chlorine, pH, temperature), oxygen sensors, carbon monoxide analyzers, and metabolic measurement systems. The issuing bodies span cities, counties, state universities, and special-purpose authorities—primarily small procurements of one to three units at a time, with annual values ranging from tens of thousands to potentially higher depending on the system. The mix includes municipal health departments, water treatment facilities, transit and energy authorities, and higher-education institutions.

Activity clusters in Florida, Georgia, Texas, New Jersey, and Virginia. Representative recent opportunities include the City of Newark's ITB for hand-held X-ray fluorescence lead paint analyzers (due December 19, 2023), the City of Tampa's single-source procurement for Wallace and Tiernan water quality analyzers at $75,000 annually through Water Treatment & Controls Technology, Inc., and the City of Austin's IFQ for two oxygen sensors (Thermo Scientific Part No. 117494-00, due July 6, 2026). GSW State University in Georgia issued an eRFQ for a metabolic measurement system (due May 4, 2026). The code also captures ancillary equipment for large infrastructure projects—notably the Solid Waste Authority of Palm Beach County's RFEI for design, build, operate, and maintain services on a new mass-burn waste-to-energy facility (due November 18, 2026), which includes procurement of air pollution control equipment and monitoring systems as part of a broader facility scope. Pursuit opportunity is moderate; while individual analyzer procurements are routine and recurring, they tend to be low-dollar, specification-driven buys with short response windows and existing vendor relationships strongly favored through sole-source or preferred-distributor arrangements.
