NIGP 92662: Noise Testing Services

NIGP 92662 Noise Testing Services, an Item code, encompasses environmental noise assessment and documentation work that state and local agencies solicit as part of broader environmental compliance and transportation infrastructure projects. Recent opportunities show state transportation departments and municipalities purchasing noise studies, noise impact analysis, and related environmental documentation integrated within larger NEPA (National Environmental Policy Act) and environmental permitting support contracts rather than as standalone noise-testing procurements. The Georgia Department of Transportation (GDOT) is the dominant issuing body in the recent activity block, appearing in multiple RFQs for environmental support services contracts that explicitly include noise studies as a required discipline within Contract 1 (NEPA, Air Quality, Noise and Public Involvement). Issuing bodies soliciting under this code span state departments (transportation), counties, and municipalities; GDOT's repeated issuance of multi-contract environmental support services RFQs indicates sustained demand for noise expertise as part of transportation project delivery and environmental documentation workflows.

Georgia dominates recent activity, with GDOT's RFQ-484-081726 (posted July 16, 2026, with Statements of Qualifications due August 17, 2026) and the prior PNA-484-081726 (issued June 16, 2026) both explicitly requiring noise studies area-class prequalification and designated noise team leads. Contract 1 carries a minimum value of $25,000 and maximum value of $35 million with contract terms of up to five years; compensation may be structured as Lump Sum, Cost Plus Fixed Fee, Cost per Unit of Work, or Specific Rate of Compensation, to be negotiated following selection. GDOT's earlier RFQ-484-042726 Batch #1 (issued March 25, 2026) for engineering design services on five transportation projects in Glynn, Gwinnett, Jackson, and Fulton counties also required NEPA documentation and environmental studies disciplines. The Santa Clara County bridge replacement ITB (issued February 11, 2026) and the City of Union City building plan review RFP (issued May 13, 2026) represent non-transportation municipal activity, though neither explicitly names noise testing as a discrete scope component. Recent opportunities cluster in Georgia; activity outside Georgia in the block remains limited.
