NIGP 88058: Projectors, Opaque; Carrying Cases; Parts; And Accessories (Epidiascopes)

NIGP 88058 Projectors, Opaque; Carrying Cases; Parts; and Accessories (Epidiascopes), an Item code, covers classroom projectors, audiovisual equipment, and related installation, removal, and repair services as state and local governments actually procure them today. The scope extends beyond equipment purchase to encompass on-site installation of projector and AV systems, removal of legacy equipment, and ongoing maintenance and repair support. Issuing bodies span independent school districts, law enforcement agencies, and regional cooperative purchasing vehicles. School districts dominate the recent record, soliciting integrated procurement-and-services packages that consolidate equipment supply with technical labor under indefinite quantity or term contracts. Repair and installation services tied to projector and AV equipment represent a material component of the work being bought, not merely accessories to commodity purchases.

Northside Independent School District in San Antonio, Texas, posted RFP 2026072 on July 14, 2026, consolidating two prior contracts for classroom projectors and AV equipment procurement, installation, removal, and repair services, with sealed bids due August 6, 2026. Sourcewell, a Minnesota-based cooperative purchasing entity, issued RFP 061626 on May 12, 2026, for law enforcement equipment available to participating jurisdictions in Washington state and beyond, with proposals due June 16, 2026. Recent activity shows engagement from school districts in Texas and law enforcement procurement through regional cooperatives spanning the Pacific Northwest and multistate membership. The code sees active procurement across the lower 48 states through cooperative purchasing frameworks, with Texas school districts representing a visible buyer base for classroom-focused projector and AV systems.
