NIGP 91340: Construction, Pipeline

NIGP 91340 Construction, Pipeline is an Item code under which state and local governments procure earthwork, trenchless rehabilitation, and utility main installation and replacement across water, wastewater, stormwater, and reclaimed-water infrastructure. Recent solicitations show city, county, and special-district utilities buying pipeline construction through competitive IFB and RFP processes, with work spanning replacement of deteriorated asbestos-cement and cast-iron mains, installation of new transmission and force mains using open-cut and directional-drill methods, trenchless lining of existing pipes via cured-in-place pipe (CIPP) or geopolymer systems, and associated appurtenances including valves, hydrants, fittings, and testing. Geographic activity clusters in Florida (Oviedo, Casselberry, Cartersville, Tucson, Salt Lake City, Boulder County, and multiple other jurisdictions) with significant recent volume in the Southeast and West.

Representative recent opportunities include the City of Oviedo's Live Oak Reserve Force Main Replacement (ITB 26-28, bids due June 25, 2026; 400 linear feet of 10-inch PVC open-cut and 3,400 linear feet of 10-inch HDPE via horizontal directional drill), the City of Cartersville, Georgia's Mechanicsville & Jones Mill Road Water Main Replacement (bids due November 12, 2026; approximately 11,131 combined linear feet of 8-inch, 6-inch, and 2-inch water main across two phases with 180–210 calendar day timelines), the City of Bostwick, Georgia's water-line replacement along SR 83 (ITB, bids due October 22, 2026; 3,668 linear feet of 8-inch PVC main plus associated accessories), and Orange County, Florida's five-year Storm Water Pipe Slip Lining Rehabilitation contract (Y27-110, bids due October 20, 2026; estimated $7.86 million year-one cost for RICIPP lining work across multiple county locations). Bidding is active across Florida counties and municipalities, Georgia utilities, Utah and Colorado jurisdictions, and Connecticut towns, with most contracts requiring Florida or state contractor licensing, performance and payment bonds at 100 percent of contract value, 5–10 percent bid security, comprehensive general liability and workers' compensation insurance, compliance with AWWA testing and material standards, and liquidated-damages provisions. Small Business Enterprise participation goals of 10–25 percent apply in select solicitations (Pinellas County, Hillsborough County, Waterford Utility Commission). Activity is robust and represents sustained demand for experienced utility contractors with trenchless and open-cut main-installation capacity and crews qualified for directional drilling, pressure testing, and confined-space operations.
