NIGP 91548: Graphic Arts Services (Not Printing)

NIGP 91548 Graphic Arts Services (Not Printing), an Item code, encompasses design and creative visual content production that state and local governments use to support communications, marketing, branding, and outreach—work that frequently bundles graphic design with video production, media planning, social media content creation, and digital asset development. Issuing bodies soliciting under this code span state universities and community colleges (Lamar State College Orange, Texas State Technical College), municipalities (Albuquerque, Milpitas, Mableton, Dallas, Madison, Stockbridge, Cincinnati), transit authorities (Orange County Transportation Authority), counties (Clayton County Water Authority, San Mateo), school districts (Northside Independent School District), and state agencies (Florida Department of Transportation, Illinois Department of Healthcare and Family Services). The scope of work most recently posted ranges from narrow specialized services—a County of San Mateo RFP for on-call graphic recording to translate complex policy into visual summary materials—to integrated creative suites. Lamar State College Orange's RFP 787-LSCO-052626 (due July 31, 2026) solicits creative services including graphics, print ads, video production, social media content, radio and television commercials, brand management, and media placement for higher-education marketing, with compensation structured on hourly rates and project costs and a ceiling of $1 million over the contract life. The City of Milpitas RFP 26-155 (due July 28, 2026) seeks on-call communications and marketing support encompassing graphic design, video production, and media planning and buying for citywide initiatives including event recaps, public service announcements, testimonial campaigns, branding, infographics, and integrated media campaigns across digital, print, social, and broadcast, with a five-year anticipated term beginning October 1, 2026.

Geographic spread across recent opportunities includes Texas (Lamar State College Orange, TSTC, Northside Independent School District, Dallas, Region One Education Service Center), Florida (Tampa Bay Water, FDOT District Six, Valencia College), California (Milpitas, San Mateo), Georgia (Stockbridge, Mableton, Clayton County Water Authority), Illinois (Department of Healthcare and Family Services), Wisconsin (Madison), Ohio (Cincinnati), and Arizona (Orange County Transportation Authority in California context). Activity concentrates in Texas and Florida, with scattered municipal and county demand across Western and Mid-Atlantic states. Beyond the representative opportunities above, the City of Albuquerque RFP for BioPark graphic design (due July 31, 2026), the Florida Department of Transportation's public communications RFP for Monroe County (due March 31, 2026, with maximum value of $1.1 million), and the Illinois Department of Healthcare and Family Services' statewide Medicaid outreach communications RFP (due May 14, 2026, with $9 million ceiling) demonstrate demand for larger-scope, longer-duration contracts that integrate design with media strategy and placement.
