NIGP 94677: Statistical Services

NIGP 94677 Statistical Services, an Item code, encompasses consulting and professional analysis work that state and local governments use to quantify, model, and interpret data across financial compliance, transportation demand, risk management, environmental measurement, and procurement equity. Recent solicitations show governments hiring statistical consultants to calculate transit ridership metrics, model capital risk and reserve targets, conduct unclaimed property audits, prepare indirect cost allocation plans, perform disparity studies, analyze forest carbon accounting, and structure water demand forecasting. The issuing-body mix spans state transportation authorities (Orange County Transportation Authority in California), state revenue and education departments (Washington Department of Revenue, Nevada Department of Education, Texas Office of the Governor, California Air Resources Board), counties (Okaloosa County, Fairfax County), cities (Dallas, Phoenix), special-purpose districts (Cooperative Insurance Services in Oregon), and school districts (Alief Independent School District in Texas). No single buyer dominates the recent activity, though Washington Department of Revenue appears twice with related unclaimed property auditing procurement—two RFPs issued in April 2026 for the same service spanning multiple counties.

Geographic activity clusters in California, Texas, Washington, Florida, Arizona, Oregon, and Virginia, with work posted between February and July 2026. Representative recent opportunities include the Orange County Transportation Authority's July 2026 RFP for ridership program consulting services (two-year, $380,000 firm-fixed-price contract effective September 1, 2026, with evaluation weighted toward firm qualifications and staffing); the City of Dallas's July 2026 RFP for parking citation and permit management (three years with two optional one-year renewals, due July 24, 2026); Cooperative Insurance Services' June 2026 RFP for enterprise risk management and capital modeling services (Oregon-based risk pool, proposals due July 13, 2026 with finalist interviews scheduled July 27–31 and contract award anticipated August 21, 2026); Okaloosa County's June 2026 ITQ for arbitrage consulting services on tax-exempt bond compliance (annual rebate calculations under IRC Section 148, quotes due July 15, 2026); Washington Department of Revenue's April 2026 RFP for unclaimed property auditing across five counties (merit-based evaluation, bidders conference May 8, proposals due June 5, compensation structured at ten percent of property value delivered, maximum $2 million over three-year term); and Texas Office of the Governor's April 2026 RFP for indirect cost allocation plan services (draft plan due May 11, final due May 29, with HUB subcontracting requirement and weighted evaluation favoring experience and work plan quality). No standout sector concentration appears; governments procure statistical services episodically rather than as recurring volume buys under this code.
