NIGP 01064: Insulation, Loose Fill

NIGP 01064 Insulation, Loose Fill (Item) covers delivery and installation of loose-fill insulation materials for building construction and renovation projects, though recent state and local solicitations show the code capturing broader materials-delivery activity including road rock, sand-fill, and aggregate products for municipal infrastructure work. State and local buyers under this code span city public works departments, county boards of education, utility commissions, and special districts pursuing facility improvements, infrastructure maintenance, and renovation work. The City of Pembroke Pines, Florida posted an as-needed delivery contract (IFB PSUT2026QQ03, due October 1, 2026) for road rock, sand-fill, and washed rock with an estimated annual spend of up to $25,000 and a potential 6-year term; the Stephens County Board of Education in Georgia solicited CM at Risk proposals (RFP PE55598NONST2027000000002, due October 9, 2026) for districtwide renovations and modifications with a construction budget of $20 million to $26 million, including roof and HVAC improvements and facility modifications; and the Orlando Utilities Commission initiated an open-enrollment Preferred Contractor Network program (posted September 7, 2026) accepting qualified contractors in 17 disciplines including insulation work for residential and commercial customers across Orange County and Orlando City, Florida, with a $250 registration fee per discipline.

Recent activity concentrates in Florida and Georgia, with secondary activity in Washington state (Sourcewell cooperative law enforcement equipment procurement) and Texas (City of Arlington water main improvements). The low-dollar, as-needed delivery contract in Pembroke Pines and the utility commission's open network program suggest fragmented, commodity-driven procurement at the municipal level, while the Stephens County school district's $20 million–$26 million renovation RFP signals larger institutional renovation activity where insulation and HVAC work represents a component cost within broader construction management contracts rather than standalone commodity procurement.
