NIGP 89023: Elements, Primary (Flow, Pressure, Temperature, etc.)

NIGP 89023 Elements, Primary (Flow, Pressure, Temperature, Etc.), an Item code, covers equipment sensors, instrumentation, and monitoring systems that measure and control physical processes in municipal water and wastewater infrastructure. Recent state and local solicitations under this code target replacement and ongoing operation of flow measurement sensors, data loggers, pressure transducers, and associated telemetry equipment installed across water treatment plants and sanitary collection systems. Issuing bodies range from small municipalities like the City of Holly Hill, Florida to mid-size county water and sewer departments such as Forsyth County, Georgia, where procurement spans both sole-source equipment replacement and open competitive services for long-term flow monitoring and data management.

Forsyth County, Georgia Department of Water and Sewer posted an RFP (27-19-3320) due October 15, 2026 for comprehensive sanitary sewer flow monitoring services covering approximately 640 miles of gravity sewer main and 19,400 manholes across a five-year contract term running January 1, 2027 through December 31, 2031. The scope includes installation, removal, operation, and maintenance of flow monitoring equipment; data collection and quality control; hosted web-based data management with alarming and notification; and engineering analysis, with the contractor assuming operation of existing County-owned Telog RU-35 data loggers, FloWav sensors, and Beluga area-velocity equipment. In Florida, the City of Holly Hill procured a replacement drive shaft unit (WesTech DS43 Dual Shaft Drive, Model DV8026) for softener #2 at its Water Treatment Plant through sole-source procurement (SS202001) at a total cost of $113,067.00, consisting of $79,159.00 for equipment and $33,908.00 for installation services. Recent opportunities concentrate in Florida and Georgia, with procurement activity driven by aging infrastructure replacement and comprehensive system-wide monitoring initiatives.
