NIGP Code 920-37 — Networking Services (Including Installation, Security, and Maintenance) — is a standardized State, Local, and Education (SLED) procurement classification within Class 920 — Data Processing, Computer, Programming, and Software Services of the National Institute of Governmental Purchasing (NIGP) Commodity/Services Code taxonomy. Across all 50 states, over 33 state central purchasing offices and thousands of county governments, municipal utilities, public university systems, transit authorities, and K-12 school districts obligate approximately $4.1 Billion annually under NIGP 920-37, generating 530+ Bids active Invitations for Bid (IFBs), Requests for Proposals (RFPs), and informal quote requests each year. The NIGP taxonomy uses a hierarchical structure where the 3-digit Class (920) identifies the broad commodity or service family (Data Processing, Computer, Programming, and Software Services) and the 5-digit Class-Item code (920-37) pinpoints the specific service (networking) deliverable. When state and municipal buyers post solicitations on portals such as Texas ESBD & ISD Portals, Virginia eVA, North Carolina eVP, and Georgia TGM, automated bid invitations are dispatched exclusively to vendors who have added NIGP Class 920 and Item 920-37 to their supplier registration profiles.

In addition to standalone municipal RFPs and sealed low-bid IFBs, a substantial share of NIGP 920-37 purchasing flows through cooperative purchasing agreements and statewide term contracts—including E-Rate Category 2 / TX DIR / PEPPM / NASPO.
