NIGP 91117: C.i.p., Construction, Roads

NIGP 91117 C.I.P., Construction, Roads, is an Item code encompassing the design, engineering, and construction of roadway, drainage, and related infrastructure projects that state and local governments solicit regularly across counties, municipalities, and transit authorities. Recent solicitations show a diversified mix of road resurfacing and reconstruction work (milling, paving, and striping), drainage system improvements (storm sewers, culverts, and conveyance systems), bridge repairs and removal, turn-lane construction, and ancillary site work including ADA modifications, sidewalk installation, and traffic control. Representative recent work includes Seminole County's master services agreement for miscellaneous bridge repairs (IFB CC720026TAD, bids due November 18, 2026, with an engineer's estimate of $1.2 million annually); Sarasota County's resurfacing of South McCall Road and other South County roads (IFB 262905MH, due September 23, 2026); and Orange County's traffic signal upgrade phases (sealed responses due October 22, 2026, phases estimated at $5.55 million and $5.42 million respectively). Issuing bodies include county boards of commissioners, city public works and procurement departments, school districts, transit authorities, and special-purpose districts. FDOT prequalification is a mandatory filter across many Florida procurements; Georgia Department of Transportation prequalification similarly gates entry in Georgia jurisdictions. M/WBE participation is encouraged but not set-aside in most opportunities reviewed.

Geographic concentration spans Florida (Seminole, Sarasota, Orange, Volusia, Marion, Pasco, Flagler, Collier, Okaloosa counties and cities including Daytona Beach, Fort Myers, Tarpon Springs), Georgia (Barrow, Bibb, Lincoln, Collier, and City of Dalton), Texas (Williamson, Brazoria counties and cities of Waxahachie, Missouri City, Gallup), Tennessee (Town of Farragut), California (San Mateo County), and other states including South Carolina, New Mexico, Michigan, and Arizona. Florida and Georgia dominate recent activity. Representative work spans small drainage and sidewalk projects (under $500,000) to large corridor improvements and multi-phase signal upgrades (approaching $11 million combined). Bidders face strict prequalification filters, prevailing wage compliance where federal funding applies, environmental permitting coordination (particularly for coastal and drainage work), and performance/payment bond requirements scaled to contract value. Contract award typically goes to the lowest responsive and responsible bidder; evaluation criteria vary but commonly include past performance, financial capacity, quality control capability, and schedule compliance. Work orders under master services agreements and progressive design-build delivery are prevalent, reflecting state and local preference for flexible contracting vehicles on uncertain-scope portfolios.
