NIGP 88055: Projectors, Motion Picture (Standard Type Only); Carrying Cases; Parts, and Accessories

NIGP 88055, Projectors, Motion Picture (Standard Type Only); Carrying Cases; Parts, and Accessories, is an Item code under which state and local governments procure classroom and institutional projectors, audio-visual equipment, and ancillary services including installation, removal, and repair. The code encompasses both equipment procurement and the labor to deploy and maintain it across school facilities and other public properties. State and local issuing bodies under this code include independent school districts and cooperative purchasing vehicles that aggregate demand across multiple jurisdictions and entity types to establish framework agreements for broader use.

Northside Independent School District (NISD) in San Antonio, Texas posted RFP2026072 on July 14, 2026, closing August 6, 2026, for an indefinite-quantity contract consolidating classroom projector and AV equipment procurement with installation, removal, and repair services; the district explicitly required all incumbents on two prior expired or expiring contracts (RFP 2020-068 and RFP 2020-094) to respond to this new solicitation or lose vendor status. Sourcewell, a Minnesota-based government cooperative, issued RFP #061626 on May 12, 2026, closing June 16, 2026, for law enforcement equipment available to participating entities across Washington state, the broader United States, and Canada, with delivery through a cooperative purchasing framework. The geographic spread of recent activity includes Texas and the Pacific Northwest, with activity driven by school district refresh cycles and multi-jurisdictional cooperative procurement vehicles.
