NIGP 93686: Traffic Control Devices, Maintenance and Repair

NIGP 93686 Traffic Control Devices, Maintenance and Repair, Item code, covers the supply, installation, maintenance, and modernization of traffic signal infrastructure and work-zone safety equipment that state and local governments deploy to manage intersections and construction sites. Recent solicitations show state and local agencies buying modernized traffic signal heads and LED components, advanced detection and communication systems, signal cabinet replacements, rental and on-call maintenance services, red-light camera systems, and temporary traffic control devices including cones, barriers, arrow boards, and variable message boards. Issuing bodies span city transportation departments (Brownsville, Orlando, Madison, Detroit, Temple, Columbus), county commissioners offices (Hillsborough, Pasco, Collier, Cameron, Forsyth, Okaloosa, Boulder), and state departments (Georgia, New York, Oklahoma), with cooperative purchasing vehicles such as Purchasing Cooperative of America also active. Maintenance and modernization dominate the work type; recent large-scale examples include Hillsborough County's three-year rental contract for traffic control devices at $688,970, Orange County's $1.017 million design procurement for an intelligent transportation system upgrade across 19 signalized intersections, the City of Brownsville's multiple signal modernization projects funded through federal Carbon Reduction and Surface Transportation Block Grant programs, and Orlando's $250-per-day liquidated-damages red-light camera system replacement covering 80 intersections.

Geographic activity clusters in Texas and Florida, where recent federal infrastructure funding and signal modernization initiatives drive repeated solicitations. Texas postings include Brownsville signal improvements, communications equipment, and light synchronization projects; Cameron County modernization; and state cooperative purchasing. Florida activity spans Hillsborough County's equipment rental, Pasco County's signal installations, Collier County's adaptive traffic control system RFI, and Orange County's intelligent transportation system design. Secondary activity appears in Georgia (temporary rumble strips RFQ), New York (Merrick Avenue signal expansion IFB with radar and ITS components), Colorado (Boulder County signal cabinet RFP), North Carolina (Forsyth County maintenance RFP), Ohio (Okaloosa County maintenance and pavement markings ITB), Georgia (airfield pavement repairs at Hartsfield-Jackson), Michigan (Detroit signal maintenance rebid RFQ), Wisconsin (Madison LED replacement RFB), and Oklahoma (statewide traffic control and work zone safety RFP). Representative current opportunities include the City of Brownsville's sealed IFB for 12th Street Traffic Signal Improvements due October 29, 2026, Hillsborough County's ITB for traffic control device rental (cones, barriers, arrow boards, variable message boards) due October 28, 2026 at $688,970 over three years with mandatory Florida AMOT certification, Pasco County's four-pole box-span traffic signal construction IFB due October 27, 2026, and Orange County's design services RFP for intelligent transportation systems across 19 intersections due September 15, 2026 at $1.017 million, requiring FDOT prequalification and PE licensure in Florida.
