NIGP 84057: Teleprompters and Accessories

NIGP 84057 Teleprompters and Accessories, an Item code, encompasses commercial-grade teleprompters and related broadcast equipment that state and local governments procure as components within larger audio-visual, law enforcement, and media production systems. The code captures teleprompters and accessories when bundled into integrated facility upgrades, conference room installations, and studio production systems rather than as standalone purchases. State and local issuing bodies soliciting under this code include school districts, municipal utilities commissions, transit authorities, and cooperative purchasing consortiums. Hillsborough County Public Schools, the nation's seventh-largest school system, represents the largest recent buyer, seeking studio equipment packages for elementary, middle, and high school television production facilities. The New Smyrna Beach Utilities Commission (Volusia County, Florida) and the Charlotte Area Transit System also appear as recent buyers of integrated audio-visual systems that may include teleprompter components.

Recent opportunities concentrate in Florida and the Pacific Northwest, with activity driven by education infrastructure modernization and municipal facility upgrades. Hillsborough County Public Schools issued ITB 26049 on March 9, 2026 (due April 13, 2026), seeking studio equipment configurations including high school TV production setups with NewTek TriCaster Mini 4K NDI integration, estimated annual spending of approximately $300,000 across an initial three-year contract with up to four one-year renewals. The New Smyrna Beach Utilities Commission issued ITB 12-26 on April 7, 2026 (due May 13, 2026) for a fully integrated audio-visual presentation and broadcast system for the DeBerry Conference Room, covering design, furnish, installation, and programming for public meetings, live streaming, and video presentation. Sourcewell, a Minnesota cooperative purchasing vehicle, issued RFP 061626 on May 12, 2026 (due June 16, 2026) for law enforcement equipment available to thousands of governmental agencies across the United States and Canada, serving participating entities in Washington, Franklin County, Grant County, Grays Harbor County, Chelan County, and Yakima County. No federal set-asides or DBE goals were explicitly identified in these solicitations, though Hillsborough County requires compliance with Florida Statute procurement provisions.
