NIGP 82522: Chutes, Corrals, Livestock Holding Pens, etc.

NIGP 82522 Chutes, Corrals, Livestock Holding Pens, Etc. is an Item code under which state and local governments procure livestock-handling infrastructure, including corrals, portable corral systems, fence panels and posts, and ancillary equipment for equestrian and agricultural facilities. Recent solicitations show state and local agencies buying physical livestock-containment and handling equipment ranging from prefabricated metal corrals to complete arena and event-center facilities designed to accommodate rodeo and equestrian operations. The issuing bodies include state parks and wildlife departments, county and municipal parks and recreation departments, and state correctional agencies; these entities purchase both standalone livestock-management infrastructure and capital improvements that incorporate corrals and holding areas as part of larger agricultural or recreational venues. Scope varies from straightforward IFB procurements for commodity fence panels and posts to RFP-based architectural and engineering services for the design and construction documentation of regional arena complexes where corral and livestock-handling systems are embedded in the facility design.

Recent activity is concentrated in South Dakota, Texas, and Utah. Custer State Park in South Dakota issued IFB 26IFB19904 in August 2026 for 228 continuous fence panels (20 feet long, 56–62 inches high with seven horizontal rails and six vertical braces) and 730 nine-foot posts and 75 ten-foot posts fabricated from recycled structural pipe, with delivery to Buffalo Corrals by October 8, 2026 and bids due August 13, 2026. The Texas Department of Criminal Justice posted two separate IFBs in July 2026—IFB IW258635 for a Horse Walker and IFB IW258621 for a Portable Corral System, both due July 30, 2026. Herriman City in Utah issued RFP HERR07222026 in July 2026 seeking architecture, design, and engineering services for the Butterfield Arena and Event Center, a regional arena supporting rodeos and equestrian events with 4,000-seat capacity, with proposals due August 27, 2026 and project kickoff targeted for October 5, 2026.
