NIGP 04592: Washers and Dryers, Coin-Operated Type

NIGP 04592 Washers and Dryers, Coin-Operated Type is an Item code under which state and local governments procure coin-operated laundry equipment for facilities serving public functions. The single recent opportunity in the source reflects the code's narrow and specialized application: Sourcewell, a Minnesota local government unit and service cooperative, issued RFP #061626 on May 12, 2026, to establish a law enforcement equipment contracting solution available to thousands of governmental agencies, higher education institutions, K–12 school districts, nonprofit organizations, tribal governments, and other public entities throughout the United States and Canada. The RFP encompasses participation from Franklin County, Grant County, Grays Harbor County, Chelan County, and Yakima County in Washington, along with numerous other jurisdictions. Proposals were due June 16, 2026, at 3:30 p.m. Central Time through the Sourcewell Procurement Portal. No specific set-aside designations, disadvantaged enterprise restrictions, award values, or budget ranges were disclosed in available solicitation materials.

Activity under this code appears minimal in the recent state and local opportunity stream. The single posting suggests that coin-operated washer and dryer procurement occurs through cooperative purchasing frameworks like Sourcewell rather than through direct agency RFPs or ITBs, limiting visibility into underlying end-user demand. The geographic scope of the Sourcewell vehicle spans multiple states and Canadian jurisdictions, though the identified participating counties cluster in Washington. Vendors pursuing this code should monitor Sourcewell's portal directly and track similar cooperative purchasing vehicles in adjacent states, as traditional spot solicitations under this NIGP classification do not appear frequently in current posting activity.
