NIGP 97112: Camping and Wilderness Facility Rental or Lease

NIGP 97112 Camping and Wilderness Facility Rental or Lease, an Item code, covers facility rental, lease, and concession operations for campgrounds and wilderness recreation areas that state and local governments operate or oversee. Based on recent solicitations, the code encompasses glamping concession contracts, campground operations agreements, and related outdoor recreation facility management. State and local buyers under this code include county parks departments, municipal recreation bureaus, and parks authorities. Sarasota County solicited glamping concession services at Turtle Beach Campground, seeking proposals from camping and glamping services operators for an estimated initial five-year term with renewal options; the county welcomed local, regional, and national operators. The issuing bodies span county government and municipal parks operations, with activity concentrated among recreation and parks departments managing public outdoor facilities.

Geographic activity appears centered in the Southeast and Mountain West regions, with recent solicitations in Florida (Sarasota County) and Utah (no distinct Item 97112 opportunity in the recent block, though broader parks and recreation infrastructure improvements were posted in Salt Lake City and Herriman). The Sarasota County glamping concession RFP, due June 29, 2026, represents the only direct match to the code in the recent opportunities; it sought operational and management experience in camping and glamping services and established minimum qualifications and insurance thresholds typical of concession agreements. No other recent solicitations in the source directly target campground or wilderness facility rental or lease services under this Item code.
