NIGP 73037: Forensic Extraction Devices for Cellular Phones, Smartphones and Pdas

NIGP 73037 Forensic Extraction Devices for Cellular Phones, Smartphones and PDAs, an Item code, identifies specialized hardware and software tools used by law enforcement and public safety agencies to extract data from mobile devices during investigations. State and local governments soliciting under this code primarily include county sheriff's offices, state law enforcement agencies, and municipal police departments seeking to acquire or upgrade forensic extraction capabilities. The actual procurement activity reflects a narrower scope than the code's formal title suggests: recent opportunities name mobile device and wireless communication equipment and services as the primary buys, including Motorola radios, cellular carrier contracts, and associated accessories and support.

County and state procurement offices drive most recent activity. The County of Santa Clara posted an RFQ on June 9, 2026 for Motorola Radios and Accessories for the Office of the Sheriff, with responses due June 17, 2026. The Georgia Technology Authority issued an eRFP on April 6, 2026 to establish multiple contracts with qualified Mobile Network Carriers for comprehensive Wireless Communication Services and Equipment to support the GTA Direct program, targeting state and local government organizations across Georgia and approximately 259,000 connected devices, with a proposal deadline of May 15, 2026. Recent activity concentrates in California and Georgia, though the scope of work and issuing-body diversity suggest broader geographic distribution of procurement under this code.
