NIGP 82554: Immobilizers and Accessories: Guns, Loads, Syringes, etc.

NIGP 82554 Immobilizers And Accessories: Guns, Loads, Syringes, Etc., an Item code, covers equipment and supplies used to immobilize animals or subjects — including tranquilizer guns, dart loads, syringes, and related hardware — purchased by state and local government agencies for animal control, wildlife management, law enforcement, and veterinary purposes. State and local buyers procure these items through RFPs, RFQs, and ITBs when replacing aging equipment, expanding field operations, or responding to immediate operational needs. The code encompasses both the delivery mechanisms (air-powered or CO₂-powered guns and blow tubes) and the consumable components (darts, needles, and cartridges) required to keep immobilization programs operational.

The source provided does not include recent state or local contract opportunities under this code, so current market activity and issuing-body concentration cannot be characterized from available records. Without posted solicitations naming specific jurisdictions, response dates, or scope detail, no geographic concentration or representative recent opportunities can be identified at this time.
