NIGP 90619: Concrete Architectural Services

NIGP 90619 Concrete Architectural Services, an Item code, covers the design, planning, and related professional services for concrete structures and concrete-intensive projects procured by state and local governments. Recent solicitations show state and local bodies purchasing comprehensive architectural and engineering design services for concrete-heavy infrastructure—including airport terminal expansions, parking structures, concrete sidewalk and drainage improvements, bridge replacements, and stadium renovations—where concrete forms a material or structural component of the project scope. The issuing bodies span a diverse mix of jurisdictions: cities (Santa Fe, Meriden, Pasadena, Madison, Orlando, Fort Myers, Tucson), counties (Orange County, Seminole County, Spalding County, Statesboro, Harris County, Cameron County, Collier County), school districts (Atlanta Public Schools, Dougherty County), transit authorities (Escambia County Area Transit), and special-purpose districts (Harris County Flood Control District, Seminole County Board of County Commissioners). Recent activity reflects both standalone A/E procurement and broader facilities management—qualification-based RFPs for principal consultants, construction manager at-risk selections, on-call continuing services agreements, and job-order contracting.

Representative recent opportunities include the City of Santa Fe's qualification-based RFP (FY26RFP035, due December 17, 2025) for A/E services for Santa Fe Regional Airport Terminal Expansion, emphasizing organizational experience and references across 1,000 evaluation points; the City of Meriden's RFQ (RFQP02707, due July 29, 2026) for owner's project manager services for the new Casimir Pulaski Elementary School ($101.2 million, including $16.3 million for contaminated soil remediation and demolition); the City of Pasadena's CMAR RFP (2025RFP0203, due June 5, 2025) for Central Library Seismic Retrofit and Renovations ($123.354 million, with evaluation on experience, team, approach, financial strength, local commitment, and safety); Seminole County's paired solicitations for A/E services (PS722426NBM, due June 17, 2026) and owner representation (PS724626NBM, due July 1, 2026) for a 161,000–178,500-square-foot Indoor Sports Complex; and Spalding County's two sealed-bid ITBs (Bids #2026-016 and #2026-017, both due June 2, 2026) for approximately 2,703 and 2,582 linear feet respectively of concrete sidewalk construction with steel pedestrian bridges. Geographic concentration appears strongest in Florida, Georgia, Texas, and the Southwest (New Mexico, Arizona), with additional activity in South Carolina, Illinois, and California. The code remains active across both preliminary design and construction administration phases, with DBE and SBE participation goals appearing frequently in federal or state-funded projects.
