NIGP 93831: Engineering and Surveying Equipment Maintenance and Repair; Drawing Instruments, etc. (Including Photogrammetry Equipment)

NIGP 93831 Engineering and Surveying Equipment Maintenance and Repair; Drawing Instruments, Etc. (Including Photogrammetry Equipment) is an Item code that does not map cleanly to the recent state and local procurement activity in the source. The opportunities posted under related NIGP codes reflect state and local governments buying professional engineering and construction services—design, construction engineering and inspection, environmental review, and asset assessment—rather than maintenance, repair, or replacement of surveying or drawing instruments themselves. A single equipment procurement by Madison Metropolitan Sewerage District (MMSD) for Trimble Access GNSS survey software and TDC6 data collectors (sealed bid due June 15, 2026) represents the only direct alignment with instrument acquisition; that bid sought a fixed lump-sum price for two units of software licenses and hardware with three years of support and training, awarded to the lowest responsive bidder meeting specifications.

The broader procurement activity in the source—spanning the Georgia Department of Transportation's multiple construction engineering and inspection requests for highway and bridge projects, the City of Locust Grove and Henry County's intersection design RFQ, Brevard County's roadway-widening design services, the City of Bend's sewer improvements, Tuolumne County's environmental and historic preservation review, and the City of Sandy Springs' stormwater asset assessment—does involve surveying, engineering data collection, and design deliverables that may require surveying equipment and instruments as inputs to project scope. However, these solicitations procure services and professional expertise, not the equipment itself. The source provides no recent opportunities for maintenance, repair, or replacement of surveying equipment as a standalone commodity or service line across state and local jurisdictions. Activity under NIGP 93831 at the Item level appears minimal or dormant in the posted opportunities reviewed.
