NIGP 01011: Adhesives and Cements, Acoustical Tile

NIGP 01011 Adhesives and Cements, Acoustical Tile, an Item code, encompasses adhesives, cements, and ceiling tile products that state and local governments purchase for building maintenance, repair, and construction projects. Recent solicitations show demand centered on Portland cement for street maintenance and infrastructure work, and acoustical ceiling tiles for facility renovations. The City of Charlotte Department of Transportation is procuring Portland cement for sidewalk installation, curb and gutter work, driveway repair, and signal foundation construction under an ITB due November 3, 2026. Walworth County Department of Public Works solicited removal and replacement of acoustical ceiling tiles at its Sheriff's Office and Jail Facility, requiring Class A fire-rated tiles in 24" x 48" x 5/8" and mixed sizes with a $325,000 project budget and contract award anticipated by July 20, 2026. Issuing bodies under this code include municipal public works departments, county facilities management, and transportation agencies conducting ongoing maintenance and capital improvement projects.

Activity under the code appears concentrated in the Southeast and Midwest. The City of Charlotte (North Carolina) and Walworth County (Wisconsin) represent the primary recent opportunities. No other state-local solicitations matching this Item code appear in the current opportunity window, indicating moderate activity levels. Contractors pursuing cement and ceiling tile work at the municipal and county level should monitor public works and facilities maintenance divisions in growth corridors and areas with active infrastructure renewal programs. The Charlotte cement procurement and Walworth County ceiling tile replacement illustrate the dual demand streams: bulk commodity cement for transportation infrastructure and specialized acoustical products for institutional facility upgrades.
