NIGP 04524: Dishwashers

NIGP 04524 Dishwashers (Item) encompasses the supply and delivery of dishwashing appliances to state and local government facilities, ranging from single-unit replacements for fire stations and university housing to multi-appliance installations for residential developments. State and local purchasing offices, housing authorities, university systems, and county government procurement departments are the primary issuing bodies under this code, with solicitations structured as sealed bids (ITB), invitations to quote (ITQ), and RFPs depending on the scale and timing of the requirement. The work involves furnishing new, first-quality dishwashers with manufacturer warranties, often paired with delivery, installation coordination, and authorization documentation from authorized distributors or sellers. Beyond standalone dishwasher purchases, this code captures broader appliance-package solicitations where dishwashers represent one line item among kitchen and laundry equipment for multi-unit residential or institutional facilities.

Recent activity spans Virginia, Texas, and Florida. The Norfolk Redevelopment and Housing Authority posted a sealed-bid solicitation (PR260900927) in September 2026 for appliances—including dishwashers—for Sykes Midrise Apartments, closing September 24, 2026. The Texas A&M University System issued ITB TAMUS-ITB-26-0537 in June 2026 for appliances at Reed House, with responses due July 7, 2026. Hillsborough County Board of County Commissioners (Florida) released ITQ 26-00290 on June 4, 2026 for kitchen and laundry appliances including a 24-inch top-control built-in stainless-steel dishwasher for fire stations, with a project estimate of $41,183.79 and quotes due June 18, 2026. A Region 7 Purchasing Cooperative (Texas) RFP for custodial supplies (CUS2628) also captured ancillary appliance sourcing through a cooperative catalog-discount model. Most recent volume activity appears concentrated in the Texas and Florida region, with participation from university systems and county facilities management operations.
