NIGP 91777: Other Contracted Services, Non Exempt

NIGP 91777 Other Contracted Services, Non Exempt is an Item code encompassing specialized professional consulting and subject-matter expertise that state and local governments procure on an as-needed basis to address discrete operational, strategic, or compliance challenges. Recent state and local solicitations under this code reflect a diverse range of expertise demands: Valencia College sought subject-matter expertise for curriculum development in semiconductor cleanroom operations and engineering technology education; Santa Fe County requested on-call disaster preparedness and response consulting; Bernalillo County administered grant applications for opioid treatment capital projects; Ventura County engaged external consultants for organizational and fiscal analysis of its Area Agency on Aging service delivery model; and Georgia Southern University, under direction of the Georgia Department of Transportation, solicited outreach materials development for vehicle-to-everything technology promotion. The issuing bodies span community colleges, county governments, and state-university partnerships across education, human services, emergency management, and transportation sectors. Work scopes typically demand specialized professional judgment—program evaluation, organizational restructuring analysis, subject-matter curriculum review, grant administration, and technology outreach strategy—rather than routine staffing or commodity procurement.

Recent activity clusters in Florida, Georgia, California, and New Mexico, with no single geographic concentration. Representative opportunities include Valencia College's Quote Request (QR202606) for semiconductor education curriculum review due August 7, 2025; Ventura County's RFP 6256 for Area Agency on Aging service model analysis due June 17, 2026, with consultant costs estimated between $100,000 and $150,000; Santa Fe County's RFP (FY26TRFP102) for on-call comprehensive disaster services due August 11, 2026; and Georgia Southern University's eRFP (53900ERFP0000017472026) for Vehicle to Everything Pooled Fund Study outreach materials due May 28, 2026. No solicitations in the recent block identified explicit set-aside designations or disadvantaged-enterprise restrictions, though qualifications typically require demonstrable prior experience in the relevant professional domain—three or more years of workforce education strategy and semiconductor instruction for Valencia College, for example. The code shows active procurement activity across multiple states and jurisdictional types, with response windows generally ranging from two to four weeks and contract periods typically twelve months or less with optional extensions.
