NIGP 92536: Engineering Services (Not Otherwise Classified)

NIGP 92536 Engineering Services (Not Otherwise Classified), an Item code, encompasses design, engineering analysis, permitting support, and construction administration work that state and local governments procure for infrastructure, facility, and site improvement projects not fitting narrower NIGP service codes. Recent solicitations show state and local buyers engaging engineering firms for park improvements and trail work, roof restoration and building systems design, roadway and utility infrastructure, flood management and coastal resilience, airport terminal expansion, and specialized systems such as power generation and communications infrastructure.

Issuing bodies across recent opportunities span counties (Orange County, Sarasota County, Chatham County, Harris County), cities (Salt Lake City, Columbus, Nashua, Savannah, Rome, Gainesville, McDonough, Rockmart, Tolleson, Santa Fe), special districts (Harris County Toll Road Authority, Harris County Flood Control District, Great Lakes Water Authority, West Basin Municipal Water District, Utah Communications Authority, Eastern Municipal Water District), and state agencies (Utah Division of Purchasing, Georgia Department of Transportation, Delaware Department of Natural Resources and Environmental Control). Orange County, California, and Chatham County, Georgia, appear as repeat buyers establishing qualified vendor lists across multiple A-E disciplines. The scope of recent work includes lump-sum and time-and-materials park and trail design-build contracts (Salt Lake City); roof system replacement design and engineering (Franklin County, Ohio); building systems and mechanical-electrical-plumbing design on task order bases (Orange County); roadway widening, grade separation, and safety improvements (Chatham County, Savannah); coastal engineering and flood resilience (Harris County Flood Control District, Sarasota County); water infrastructure and treatment facility design (West Basin Municipal Water District); construction management and project controls support (State of Utah, Great Lakes Water Authority); and specialized infrastructure inspection and commissioning (power systems, communications, landfill operations). Geographic concentration appears heaviest in California and Georgia, with active procurement across Ohio, Colorado, Utah, Minnesota, Delaware, Pennsylvania, and Florida.
