NIGP 99892: Traffic Signals and Control Equipment, Sale of Surplus and Obsolete Items

NIGP 99892 Traffic Signals And Control Equipment, Sale Of Surplus And Obsolete Items (Item) encompasses the furnishing, installation, and modernization of traffic signal infrastructure components and systems across signalized intersections. Recent state and local solicitations show activity concentrated on radar feedback sign installation, traffic signal pole and mast arm replacement, LED signal head upgrades, detection system deployment, controller cabinets, and comprehensive intersection modernization including pedestrian signals, CCTV systems, and intelligent transportation system (ITS) components. The issuing bodies span cities (Torrance, Albany, Dallas, Detroit, Madison, Brownsville, Sandy Springs, Tucson), counties (Orange County, Pasco County, Okaloosa County, Cameron County, Collier County, Broward County, Boulder County), and regional authorities, with work ranging from single-intersection improvements to citywide signal modernization programs funded through federal STBG-MM, Carbon Reduction Program, FHWA, and local capital improvement sources.

Recent opportunities span multiple regions, with notable activity in Florida (Orange County's $10.97 million two-phase signal upgrade, Pasco County box-span installations, Broward County intersection improvements on Royal Palm Boulevard, Collier County emergency sign stabilization), Texas (Brownsville's three concurrent projects totaling signal modernization across corridors and a $1.017 million ITS design engagement in Orange County, California; Cameron County light synchronization), Georgia (Albany's eight-location intersection overhaul), and other states including Colorado (Boulder County cabinet procurement), Wisconsin (Madison's LED replacement bid for 383 units), and Michigan (Detroit's traffic signal maintenance rebid). Representative recent solicitations include the City of Torrance ITB for radar feedback sign installation at 17 locations (engineer's estimate $320,000, due April 29, 2026), Orange County Florida's sealed response for Traffic Signal Upgrade Phase I and Phase II (combined $10.97 million, response deadline October 22, 2026), the City of Brownsville's three concurrent IFBs for 12th Street signal improvements, International Boulevard signal improvements, and traffic monitoring and management infrastructure (all STBG-MM funded, bids due May 26 and May 28, 2026), and the City of Detroit's RFQ for traffic signal maintenance services (rebid, June 5, 2026 response deadline). Procurements range from annual supply agreements ($50,000 estimated for Temple, Texas sign and traffic control supplies) to major capital projects with federal funding requirements, prequalification mandates, prevailing wage compliance, and multi-year contract terms. Set-asides and preferences vary by funding source and jurisdiction: federal STBG-MM and Carbon Reduction Program work requires Davis-Bacon wage rates, Buy America/Build America compliance, and HUB participation plans in Texas; FEMA-funded activity triggers prevailing wage thresholds; and Florida work often incorporates DBE participation encouragement where FDOT prequalification is required for contractors at certain threshold amounts.
