NIGP 91232: Construction, Street Lighting

NIGP 91232 Construction, Street Lighting is an Item code encompassing public-sector procurement for streetlight infrastructure installation, upgrades, maintenance, and replacement. State and local governments under this code solicit work ranging from LED retrofit campaigns and complete lighting system replacements to underground conduit installation, pole-mounted fixture decommissioning, and security-lighting audits. Recent solicitations show cities and counties treating streetlight projects as discrete capital improvements—installing new systems along arterial roadways, upgrading aging cobra-head and decorative fixtures to LED standards, and decommissioning inactive or obsolete units with lawful disposal and recycling. The issuing-body mix spans city procurement divisions (Thousand Oaks, Phoenix, Meriden, Columbus, Albany), county governments (Sarasota, Indian River, Broward), municipal recreation and parks departments, and special-purpose authorities. Repeat activity centers on municipal capital improvement programs paired with energy-efficiency mandates and public-safety initiatives, with several issuers (City of Albany, City of Meriden, City of Phoenix) running multi-year or enterprise-scale streetlight operations.

Geographic activity spreads across Florida (Orange, Sarasota, Indian River counties and cities including DeBary), Georgia (Albany, Marietta, Columbus, Atlanta), California (Thousand Oaks), and other regions nationwide. Representative recent opportunities include the City of Albany's comprehensive citywide security-light upgrades (ITB 27-027, November 2026 due date) encompassing LED retrofits of 2,552 active fixtures, decommissioning of 4,819 inactive units, and performance audits of 4,975 existing fixtures; the City of Thousand Oaks' underground streetlight conduit and pullbox installation on Avenida De Los Arboles (bids due July 29, 2026) supporting 17 new fixtures with 2,700K LED luminaires; and the City of Meriden's streetlight maintenance, inspection, and repair contract (B027-20, bids due August 26, 2026) covering approximately 4,200 LED cobra-head fixtures installed in 2016 plus decorative and post-top streetlights. Prevailing-wage requirements, liquidated damages for project delays, 100-percent performance and payment bonds, and GDOT or local utility coordination mark standard contract terms. DBE participation goals appear in some jurisdictions (Columbus at 10 percent); local-workforce preferences and licensing mandates (Class A California contractor, Georgia Department of Transportation prequalification, Florida General Contractor certification) gate entry.
