NIGP 81054: Spray Equipment, Crop, Machine Powered

NIGP 81054 Spray Equipment, Crop, Machine Powered is an Item code that encompasses aerial application equipment, truck-mounted and backpack sprayers, and specialized injection systems used by state and local governments primarily for mosquito control, vegetation management, and highway maintenance. State and local governments buy this equipment both for outright procurement and as part of managed contracts where equipment operators furnish machines, fuel, and labor together. Issuing bodies soliciting under this code include county public works and mosquito control divisions, state departments of transportation, and cooperative purchasing alliances serving multiple jurisdictions. Bergen County, New Jersey, and Pinellas County, Florida, both appear as repeat buyers seeking to establish multi-year supply relationships for mosquito control equipment and chemicals.
