NIGP 92693: Testing and Monitoring Services for Air, Gas, and Water

NIGP 92693 Testing and Monitoring Services for Air, Gas, and Water is an Item code capturing water quality laboratory analysis, environmental sampling, and related compliance work that state and local governments procure to meet regulatory requirements. State and local jurisdictions buy bacteriological testing, Legionella water management and remediation, potable and wastewater laboratory analysis, flow monitoring installation and data management, environmental microbiology services, and environmental conditions monitoring—often on an emergency or as-needed basis tied to EPA, state health department, or facility compliance mandates. Issuing bodies span state agencies (California Departments of Transportation, Water Resources, Veterans Affairs, Fish and Wildlife; Texas Health and Human Services Commission; New Jersey Department of Environmental Protection; Florida Department of Corrections; Michigan DTMB), counties (Forsyth County Georgia; Hillsborough County Florida; Santa Clara County; Fulton County Georgia; Del Norte County), municipalities (City of Fort Myers, City of Palm Bay, City of Phoenix, City of Tampa, City of Orlando, City of Holly Hill), school districts (Hillsborough County Public Schools in Florida), special-purpose districts (California Military Department, Housing Authority of the City of San Antonio), and cooperative purchasing vehicles (Region 7 Purchasing Cooperative in Texas). Repeat buyers across the opportunity set include California state entities (Caltrans, DWR, CAL FIRE, CDFW) and Florida local governments (cities and counties) procuring both routine monitoring and emergency response services.

Recent opportunities show active procurement across California, Florida, Georgia, Texas, and other states. Representative solicitations include Forsyth County's September 2026 emergency sewer spill monitoring ITQ (monitoring, sampling, analysis, and regulatory reporting for sanitary sewer spills in Georgia on an emergency call-out basis), Santa Clara County's October 2026 RFP for waterborne pathogen testing and environmental microbiology services (ISO/IEC 17025 and CDC ELITE accreditation mandatory, supporting healthcare dialysis facilities with same-day courier logistics and AAMI ST108 water quality testing), California Department of Transportation's October 2026 IFB for drinking water testing across five Northern California counties (1,011 Colilert/chlorine tests, 323 Quanti-Tray tests, plus nine other constituents, contractor within 50-mile radius of Redding with ELAP certification, contract term November 2026–October 2029), and Hillsborough County Public Schools' September 2026 ITB for water and wastewater laboratory services (32 line items covering wastewater process control, groundwater monitoring, drinking water compliance, PFAS, and courier service with estimated annual usage ranging 2–850 tests per item). Set-asides and preferences appear frequently: small business preferences (5–25% calculation incentives), disabled veteran business enterprise minimums (3–5% participation goals), and local-vendor preferences in some jurisdictions. Code activity is driven by regulatory compliance timelines, facility maintenance schedules, and emergency response needs rather than discretionary capital cycles.
