About NIGP 99310
NIGP 99310 Travel, Business is an Item code under which state and local governments procure travel planning, coordination, and ancillary services for employee and student trips — ranging from faculty-led international study abroad programs to operational travel support for state agency personnel. Recent solicitations show state agencies and higher education institutions buying end-to-end travel logistics: international airfare, ground transportation, accommodations, meals, local guides, and experiential programming tied to the trip's educational or operational purpose. The issuing bodies span university systems and state departments; the University of Houston-Downtown and the State of Illinois Department of Children and Family Services both posted activity under this code in the first half of 2026. Scope of work includes vendor management of multi-participant international itineraries with embedded learning or training value, routing optimization, insurance compliance, and detailed cost breakdowns across participant cohorts.
University of Houston-Downtown issued RFP784-27-2725 (due September 1, 2026) for a faculty-led study abroad program in Spain and Portugal scheduled January 5–17, 2027, serving 22–28 students plus two faculty with a target budget of approximately $4,000 per participant; the vendor was required to arrange international airfare from Houston, accommodations, meals, ground transportation with on-site representation, and industry and university engagement activities, with evaluation weighted toward travel quality (25 points), experiential learning (30 points), academic engagement (15 points), cost (20 points), and vendor experience (10 points). The State of Illinois Department of Children and Family Services posted a sole-source notice (PO27-001, due June 3, 2026) awarding Northwestern University $3,800,110.07 for research, training, and technical assistance supporting child welfare operations, though this procurement's travel component appears incidental to its primary scope. Recent activity concentrates in Texas and Illinois; the University of Houston-Downtown RFP represents the clearest current market signal for competitive travel-services procurement under this code.
