NIGP 91146: C.i.p., Other Services

NIGP 91146 C.I.P., Other Services is an Item code capturing professional services, design and engineering work, and specialized infrastructure consulting that state and local governments solicit when their needs fall outside conventional equipment or facility-maintenance categories. Recent opportunities reveal that government bodies use this code for systems engineering and condition assessments of transportation infrastructure; design services for tunnel rehabilitation, water treatment plant construction, and utility line improvements; on-call professional services covering roadway, structural, drainage, traffic, tolling, environmental, and construction engineering disciplines; and low-voltage cabling infrastructure installation and repair. Issuing bodies include regional toll authorities (Harris County Toll Road Authority in Texas), county transportation and infrastructure departments (DeKalb County, Georgia; Beaufort-Jasper Water and Sewer Authority, South Carolina), municipal utilities (City of Palm Bay, Florida; City of Brownsville, Texas), and county general services (Hillsborough County, Florida). Harris County Toll Road Authority appears as a repeat buyer, with multiple solicitations posted in mid-2026 for infrastructure inspection, design consultant services, and on-call engineering across 19 disciplines.

Recent activity concentrates in Texas, Florida, Georgia, and South Carolina. Harris County Toll Road Authority posted RFSQ 260165 (due August 17, 2026) for system-wide inspection and condition assessments of roadway, bridge, and facility infrastructure with multiple awards anticipated; RFSQ 260177 (due August 10, 2026) for Segment Design Consultant services on the Hardy Downtown Connector roadway and structural segments; and RFSQ 260127 (due July 27, 2026) for on-call services across 19 engineering and design disciplines.

Beaufort-Jasper Water and Sewer Authority posted IFB 2026IFB020 (due March 24, 2026) for low-pressure sewer system installation spanning 21.5 miles in South Carolina. Hillsborough County, Florida solicited through ITB2600002 (due March 3, 2026) a five-year low-voltage cabling services agreement estimated at $1,700,000.00.
