NIGP 92572: Nuclear Engineering

NIGP 92572 Nuclear Engineering is an Item code that captures general and specific engineering consulting, design, and construction administration services for infrastructure, facilities, and public utility projects. State and local governments procure under this code for transportation corridor improvements, utility system upgrades, wastewater treatment facility design and expansion, building reconstruction and emergency recovery, and Construction Engineering Inspection (CEI) services on complex projects. Recent solicitations show issuing bodies spanning state departments of transportation, county utilities departments, city public works and facilities offices, and special-purpose districts. The Georgia Department of Transportation is a repeat buyer, soliciting CEI, general engineering consulting, and post-let services across multiple transportation projects. Counties and municipalities use the code for water and sewer infrastructure design, utility operations facilities, pedestrian safety improvements, and emergency infrastructure recovery. Work scopes typically encompass preliminary and final design, environmental compliance documentation, permitting, construction management and oversight, quality assurance and materials testing, and contract administration across federal, state, and local regulatory frameworks.

The most recent activity clusters in Georgia and Florida. The Georgia Department of Transportation posted multiple RFQs in March and June 2026 for SR 25 bridge construction services and I-75 express lanes design and verification, requiring teams with expertise in traffic analysis, bridge design, environmental documentation, and construction supervision.
