NIGP 95207: Alcohol and Drug Testing Services

NIGP 95207 Alcohol and Drug Testing Services is an Item code under which state and local governments procure laboratory-based and point-of-collection drug and alcohol screening, Medical Review Officer services, specimen collection infrastructure, and related compliance administration. Recent solicitations show state and local buyers using the code to purchase urine drug panels (typically 5 to 21 substances), breath alcohol testing, confirmatory laboratory analysis, chain-of-custody documentation, random-testing pool administration, and third-party administrator support for DOT and non-DOT safety-sensitive workforces. The issuing bodies span state departments (Florida DOT, Texas Comptroller, California DCC, Oregon State Police, Washington DSHS, Kentucky Veterans Affairs), county and city governments (Solano County, Philadelphia, Seminole County, Fulton County, Collier County, Hall County, Marion County, Gwinnett County), school districts (Austin ISD, Northside ISD, Clarke County SD), transit authorities (Missouri MoDOT/MHTC), and specialized courts and regulatory boards (Savannah-Chatham Drug Court, Texas State Board of Pharmacy, Texas State Medical Board). Activity concentrates in Florida, Georgia, Texas, Missouri, California, and Washington.

Recent representative opportunities include the Washington Department of Social and Health Services soliciting Third Party Administrator services for five-county drug and alcohol testing covering approximately 18,000 employees, with a maximum contract value of $300,000 over five years and a pre-bid conference on June 29, 2026; the City of Philadelphia requesting quotes for 21-panel drug test kits and alcohol test kits with a response deadline of July 20, 2026; Northside Independent School District (San Antonio, Texas) issuing RFP 1-27RFP002 for occupational screening and drug and alcohol testing services with proposals due July 15, 2026; the Missouri Department of Transportation soliciting transit drug and alcohol program services for approximately 875 safety-sensitive employees across 36 transit agencies with proposals due June 11, 2026 and a two-year contract term from July 1, 2026; and the Texas Comptroller of Public Accounts requesting statewide drug and alcohol testing services serving DOT and non-DOT positions across five state agencies and higher-education institutions, with a mandatory HUB subcontracting plan (2.0% utilization goal), multiple addenda extending the original March 4, 2026 deadline to April 15, 2026, and evaluation based on experience and qualifications (300 points), pricing (500 points), and ability to perform (200 points). Procurement notices under this code require respondents to maintain SAMHSA or HHS laboratory certification, establish geographically distributed collection sites, employ Medical Review Officers, hold professional liability and general liability insurance (commonly $1 million per occurrence), and comply with 49 CFR Part 40 (DOT) or SAMHSA Mandatory Guidelines (non-DOT). Set-asides and preferences—including HUB (Texas), SBE/CBE (District of Columbia), DBE (Missouri), MBE/WBE (multiple Georgia and Texas procurements), and veteran-owned designations (Washington)—appear frequently in recent solicitations.
