NIGP 91597: Wiring Services, Data/Voice

NIGP 91597 Wiring Services, Data/Voice is an Item code encompassing installation, termination, configuration, and maintenance of structured cabling infrastructure for data, voice, and video networks across municipal, county, school district, and state agency facilities. State and local governments procure copper and fiber optic cabling systems, related hardware (patch panels, wire management, connectors, access points), testing and certification services, and moves/adds/changes (MAC) work to support telecommunications and network operations. Work is solicited as fixed-price contracts, often with multi-year terms and renewal options, and frequently requires low-voltage electrical licensing (C-7 or equivalent), BICSI RCDD credentials for assigned personnel, and compliance with TIA/EIA and ANSI standards.

Recent activity spans multiple issuing-body types: municipalities (City of Doral, City of Wichita, City of St. Petersburg, Volusia County), school districts (Spring ISD Texas, Northside ISD Texas, Savannah-Chatham County Public Schools, Ingham ISD), counties (Santa Clara County California), state departments (Texas DIR, Texas TDCJ, District of Columbia DPW, California Military Department), and regional transit and airport authorities (Peachtree City Airport Authority). The City of Doral (ITB 2026-22, due September 28, 2026) solicited telecommunications wiring installation across data, cable television, video, and voice networks with fixed pricing for three years plus three optional one-year renewals; Spring ISD (RFP, due November 13, 2026) procured approximately 250 network switches, power supplies, cables, and five-year support estimated at over $1 million; Northside ISD San Antonio (RFP 2026-079, due September 24, 2026) sought MAC telecommunications cabling to replace an expiring contract; Santa Clara County (ITB, due September 30, 2026) requested Wi-Fi access point replacement services at multiple county sites as a public work with prevailing wages; and the Texas Department of Information Resources (cooperative contract COOP2026SOL-00008, due September 24, 2026) issued a master vehicle for cabling planning, design, installation, and maintenance serving state agencies, local governments, and K-12 school districts across Texas with historical annual volumes of $11.1 to $12.0 million. Activity concentrates in Texas, California, Florida, and Georgia, with distributed opportunities across the South and Midwest. Licensing mandates, insurance requirements ($1 million commercial general liability minimum typical), and bid/performance bonds of 5–10% of contract value are standard prerequisites.
