NIGP 71054: Audiometers, Calibrators, and Accessories (Including Audiometric Examining Rooms)

NIGP 71054 Audiometers, Calibrators, and Accessories (Including Audiometric Examining Rooms), an Item code, encompasses mobile audiometric testing services with certified technicians and sound-treated equipment, as well as calibration services for audiology equipment and the audio-visual components that support hearing-testing environments. State and local governments solicit under this code primarily through county sheriff and public safety agencies, school districts serving deaf and blind students, and municipal bodies, with solicitation activity concentrated in California, Florida, and Georgia. The County of Orange Sheriff-Coroner has emerged as an active repeat buyer, posting multiple IFBs for mobile audiometric testing services delivered by certified technicians in microprocessor-equipped vans to law enforcement training and operational facilities.

Recent opportunities reflect two distinct service pathways. The County of Orange Sheriff-Coroner issued IFB 0603013202JG (due June 26, 2026) for mobile audiometric testing services at four facilities with firm fixed-fee pricing for full-day, half-day, and hourly rates, three-year initial terms with two optional one-year renewals, and mandatory performance and labor-material bonds; the solicitation carries a five percent local small business and DVBE preference with a $100,000 cap. The Florida School for the Deaf and the Blind posted a single-source notice for 2026 calibration services of Grason-Stadler audiology equipment (intended award to e3 Diagnostics, Inc., $2,125.00 not-to-exceed, through May 7, 2026), establishing the calibration-service market segment. Valencia College District in Florida's RFP 2026-26 (due April 30, 2026) for classroom and conference room technology services across nine campuses—averaging $1.6 million in annual spending—included audio-visual and sound-system components as part of broader technology integration, demonstrating overlap between this code and larger institutional AV procurement.
