NIGP 80505: Aerobic Training Equipment

NIGP 80505 Aerobic Training Equipment, an Item code, encompasses the purchase, maintenance, repair, and installation of commercial-grade fitness machines—treadmills, cross trainers, upright and recumbent bikes, stairclimbers, rowing machines, and related cardio apparatus—that state and local governments procure for detention facilities, fire departments, universities, military installations, and school district fitness centers. Recent solicitations show a mix of one-time equipment purchases, comprehensive multi-unit outfitting projects, and ongoing preventive maintenance and repair contracts. Issuing bodies include county governments (Salt Lake County, Gwinnett County), cities (City of Atlanta), state departments (State of Maine, Jackson State University), school districts (Trion City Schools), and cooperative purchasing vehicles (Sourcewell on behalf of multiple Washington counties and other jurisdictions). Salt Lake County appears as both a repeat buyer and a significant maintenance contractor buyer, indicating both capital equipment and sustained service demand under this code.

Recent activity spans multiple states and regions. Salt Lake County, Utah solicited quarterly preventive maintenance and repair services for approximately 25 exercise machines at detention and sheriff facilities under RFC due October 29, 2026, with an estimated annual cost of $4,000 and a six-year term. Jackson State University, Mississippi issued sealed bids for eight treadmills, five cross trainers, two upright bikes, four recumbent bikes, and two PowerMill climbers due August 12, 2026.

The City of Atlanta conducted a multi-step sealed bid prequalification for comprehensive fitness equipment procurement and installation at fire rescue locations, with prequalification due June 30, 2026 and an IFB to follow.

Sourcewell, a Minnesota cooperative, sought proposals for law enforcement equipment (RFP #061626 due June 16, 2026) on behalf of participating Washington counties and other jurisdictions nationwide, indicating this code captures equipment purchases within broader equipment procurement initiatives.
