NIGP 96774: Safety and Security Equipment Manufacturing Services

NIGP 96774 Safety And Security Equipment Manufacturing Services, an Item code, covers the purchase, installation, maintenance, and repair of specialized security infrastructure — video surveillance systems, detention facility door access controls, electronic security system upgrades, automatic gates, and related equipment — that state and local governments deploy across schools, corrections facilities, police departments, and county parks. Recent solicitations show school districts and county agencies procuring turnkey camera and access-control deployments with strict manufacturer-certification and integration requirements, detention facilities replacing head-end control equipment and door-locking systems, and municipalities and counties contracting for gate design-build, maintenance, and repair services on multi-year terms. The work encompasses both capital equipment purchases (often with mandatory pre-bid conferences and technical proposal scoring on experience and integration capability) and ongoing service contracts requiring specialized licensing, insurance, and rapid-response availability.

Activity concentrates in Florida, Georgia, Texas, and Connecticut, with school districts (Muscogee County and Sarasota County in Georgia and Florida) and county corrections or public-works departments (Orange County Florida, Brevard County Florida, Collin County Texas, Hillsborough County Florida) driving recent solicitations. Representative current opportunities include Muscogee County School District's RFP for purchase and installation of approximately 620 Genetec and AXIS cameras across ten elementary schools, due August 4, 2026, requiring certified manufacturer partnership and three years' proven installation experience; Orange County Florida's IFB for corrections-facility security controls and secure-door replacement at an estimated $7 million, due July 21, 2026, via electronic submission only; and Collin County Texas's sealed-bid invitation for electronic security system upgrade at the Adult Detention Facility with a probable construction cost of $3.3 million and mandatory pre-bid meetings in January 2026. Hillsborough County Florida's ITB for automatic gate purchasing, preventative maintenance, and repair services across 14 county locations carries an estimated two-year value of $139,158 and requires 24-hour response capability and five-business-day completion timelines.
