NIGP 91114: C.i.p., Construction Contingency

NIGP 91114 C.I.P., Construction Contingency (Item) encompasses trenchless pipe rehabilitation, municipal infrastructure replacement, facility modernization, and emergency structural repairs—the high-value, technically specialized work that state and local governments procure when existing built assets require significant intervention. Recent solicitations show county public works departments, municipalities, school districts, and special-purpose authorities as the dominant buyers, with repeat activity concentrated in Florida counties (Orange, Pasco, Marion, Seminole) and Georgia jurisdictions (DeKalb County Schools, Bibb County Schools, City of Lawrenceville, Columbus State University, Kennesaw State University). Orange County, Florida appears as a particularly active issuer, with multiple recent IFBs and RFPs for drainage improvements, bridge replacement, sidewalk construction, and corrections facility work. The work being solicited ranges from $1.27 million sidewalk design and construction projects to $39.56 million five-year stormwater pipe rehabilitation contracts, with specialized scopes including CIPP lining, seismic compliance retrofits, CMAR preconstruction and construction management, and design-build progressive delivery.
