NIGP 74032: Dry Ice Making Machines

NIGP 74032 Dry Ice Making Machines, an Item code, covers equipment that state and local governments procure for law enforcement, forensic, and specialty operational uses, as evidenced by recent cooperative purchasing solicitations. The scope spans dry ice production and support equipment deployed across police departments, correctional facilities, and other public safety agencies that rely on dry ice for evidence preservation, crime scene documentation, controlled-atmosphere applications, and tactical training scenarios. Issuing bodies under this code range from county sheriffs' departments and municipal police forces to state public safety agencies, coordinating purchases either directly or through cooperative purchasing vehicles such as Sourcewell that aggregate demand across multiple jurisdictions and entity types.

Sourcewell, a Minnesota local government unit and service cooperative, posted RFP #061626 on May 12, 2026 with a response deadline of June 16, 2026, seeking law enforcement equipment solutions on behalf of participating counties in Washington State (Franklin, Grant, Grays Harbor, Chelan, and Yakima) and jurisdictions throughout the United States and Canada. The cooperative framework makes the resulting contract available to thousands of governmental agencies, higher education institutions, K-12 school districts, nonprofit organizations, tribal governments, and other public entities, expanding the practical market reach for vendors winning positions under this code. The solicitation does not identify specific budget parameters, set-aside designations, or incumbent vendors in available documentation. Vendors submit proposals through the Sourcewell Procurement Portal with technical and process questions directed to Mari Vielma (rfp@sourcewell-mn.gov or 888-894-1930).
