NIGP 80330: Intercom Systems, Group (for Panel Discussions, Schoolrooms, Hospital Rooms, etc.)

NIGP 80330 Intercom Systems, Group (For Panel Discussions, Schoolrooms, Hospital Rooms, Etc.) is an Item code under which state and local governments procure intercom and public address systems for schools, healthcare facilities, detention centers, and other public institutions—encompassing equipment supply, installation, system replacement, expansion, and related design-build services. Recent solicitations show demand across multiple facility types: school districts seek complete intercom system replacements or expansions at individual campuses; state healthcare and corrections agencies procure nurse call and detention equipment systems; and county sheriff departments contract for comprehensive security electronics and detention equipment services. The issuing bodies include school districts (charter schools and county school systems), state agencies (departments of veterans' affairs), county sheriffs' offices, and county boards of education. Work scopes range from modest single-facility upgrades to large multi-unit replacements with design-build components, structured wiring infrastructure, staff training, and long-term warranty obligations.

Recent activity spans California, Florida, and Georgia. The Orange County Sheriff-Coroner Department issued an IFB on August 19, 2026 for one-year Job Order Contracting services covering security electronics and detention equipment across Orange County facilities, valued up to $3 million, requiring California contractor licenses in Class B, C-10, and C-28, with mandatory pre-bid attendance and prevailing wage compliance. The Cherokee County School District (Georgia) posted an RFP on June 10, 2026 (proposals due June 24) for full intercom system supply and installation at Dean Rusk Middle School and Indian Knoll Elementary School, with potential awards to multiple proposers through the Euna Procurement portal. The Richmond County Board of Education (Georgia) issued RFP #26-206 on April 27, 2026 (proposals due May 27) for classroom audio enhancement across 60 classrooms at Langford-Tutt Middle School, evaluating on ease of use, track record, infrastructure compatibility, cost, and technology integration capability, with lump-sum award to the lowest responsible bidder. The Florida Department of Veterans' Affairs solicited sealed bids via ITB-26-0010B (bids due June 30, 2026) for design-build replacement of an analog nurse call system with a Rauland R5K system at Chester Sims State Veterans' Nursing Home in Panama City, Florida, including structured wiring, staff training, and five-year warranty.
