NIGP 87510: Artificial Insemination Equipment (for Semen Ejaculation, Freezing, Storage, and Use)

NIGP 87510 Artificial Insemination Equipment (For Semen Ejaculation, Freezing, Storage, And Use) is an Item code with minimal recent state and local procurement activity. The source records show no solicitations directly requesting artificial insemination equipment, supplies, or related consumables under this code. Instead, the two most recent opportunities posted under this classification involve veterinary services (Pinal County Animal Care & Control seeking spay/neuter and surgical services) and refrigerated emergency transport (City of Tucson seeking freezer and refrigerator trucks for police evidence storage), neither of which aligns with the core scope of artificial insemination equipment procurement.

The absence of recent equipment-focused solicitations under this code suggests low or no current demand from state and local jurisdictions for the core commodities it covers—semen collection, processing, cryopreservation, and storage systems typically used in animal breeding programs or veterinary reproductive medicine. Buyers in Arizona and elsewhere may be routing similar procurement through related veterinary-services codes, general equipment categories, or specialized animal-science purchasing vehicles rather than this Item code. A firm evaluating this code should verify current state and local demand through direct agency outreach rather than rely on posted solicitation patterns, as the recent record does not support active competition under this classification.
