NIGP 05576: Reflectors

NIGP 05576 Reflectors, an Item code, covers automotive lighting and visibility components — reflectors, reflective tape, and related safety equipment — that state and local governments procure for vehicle fleets, equipment maintenance, and emergency services. Recent activity shows state and local buyers sourcing reflectors and reflective products as part of broader fleet maintenance and parts-supply agreements rather than as standalone specialty items. School districts and county fleet operations are the primary issuing bodies, purchasing reflectors alongside OEM parts and aftermarket components to maintain and repair vehicles across transportation, public works, and emergency response fleets.

The School Board of Sarasota County, Florida posted Bid #26-0124 (due February 12, 2026) for a one-year automotive and light truck repair parts supply agreement with two optional one-year renewals, seeking firm percentage discounts off manufacturer list prices across 19 OEM brands including Wagner Lighting and Philips Lighting — manufacturers that supply reflectors alongside broader lamp and lighting assemblies. Brevard County Purchasing Services, on behalf of Fleet Services, issued an RFQ (B52621, due February 25, 2026) for just-in-time inventory management of automotive parts and supplies for a fleet of 1,114 county assets, with a budget of $730,000 for 2025–26, requiring daily or emergency two-hour delivery and full integration with the County's iMaint maintenance management system. Both solicitations are Florida-based and emphasize integration with existing maintenance systems and rapid replenishment cycles typical of county and school district fleet operations. Recent opportunities in the code show concentrated activity in Florida; no broader geographic spread is evident in the source.
