NIGP 94880: Radiation Control and Leak Detection Services

NIGP 94880 Radiation Control and Leak Detection Services is an Item code under which state and local governments procure detection equipment, system installation, and ongoing technical support for hazardous substance identification and monitoring at detention facilities, utilities, and water treatment infrastructure. Recent solicitations show concrete demand for full-body scanner systems capable of detecting metallic and non-metallic contraband at jail intake points, atmospheric monitoring instruments for hydrogen sulfide and other gases at water treatment and wastewater facilities, and advanced water leak detection services offered through utility contractor networks. The issuing bodies are primarily county and municipal authorities managing detention infrastructure, water utilities, and public health operations. Collin County, Texas appears as a repeat buyer, issuing separate procurements for facility-based detection and monitoring systems within a six-week window in 2026.

Geographic activity clusters in Texas and Florida, with Collin County (McKinney area) generating multiple concurrent opportunities and the City of Phoenix Water Services Department and Orlando Utilities Commission representing western and southeastern presence. Representative recent solicitations include Collin County's IFB 2026-389 for institutional sprinkler head replacement in detention facilities (bids due November 19, 2026, estimated cost $150,000), Collin County's RFP 2026-155 for a full-body scanner system with turnkey installation and four-hour technical support (proposals originally due September 17, 2026, first-year upfront cost estimated at $242,000), the City of Phoenix Water Services Department's IFB 27-0435 for fixed atmospheric monitoring instruments at water and wastewater facilities with a five-year term (offers due September 4, 2026, with DBE-N participation requirements), and the Orlando Utilities Commission's PCN registration program seeking Advanced Water Leak Detection contractors for a residential and commercial customer network (registration fee $250 per discipline, posted September 7, 2026). Prevailing wage, bond, insurance, and E-Verify compliance are standard requirements across detention and municipal facility procurements; water utility contracts emphasize DBE participation and 48-hour parts availability at fixed locations.
