NIGP 06078: Retreading Equipment

NIGP 06078 Retreading Equipment, an Item code, covers tire retreading services and associated parts for state and local government fleets, as evidenced by requests for quotations and bid invitations seeking retreading labor, casings, mount-and-dismount services, valve replacements, and tire repair for heavy trucks and refuse vehicles. Recent solicitations show state and local governments purchasing retreads in multiple tire sizes (11R22.5, 12R22.5, 385/65R22.5, 425/65R22.5) with specified turnaround times, national-brand casings meeting Department of Transportation standards, and ancillary services such as wheel painting and refinishing. The issuing bodies span city governments and special districts; the City of Altamonte Springs, Florida, posted an RFQ for tire retreading services for its heavy truck fleet in February 2026, representing active procurement demand for this commodity.

Recent activity concentrates in Florida, where the City of Altamonte Springs issued RFQ-26-036-GR (due January 23, 2026) seeking Bandag retreads in four tire sizes with an estimated 100 to 125 units and ancillary services, and the School Board of Sarasota County issued Bid #26-0124 (due February 12, 2026) establishing a one-year supply agreement for automotive and light truck repair parts including retreading-related materials. Both Florida solicitations require vendors to hold current insurance, register with E-Verify, comply with state debarment and scrutinized-party lists, and deliver within specified timeframes (15 business days for retreads in the Altamonte Springs RFQ). No recent opportunities outside Florida appear in the source, and no state-level cooperative purchasing framework or set-aside designations for this code are identified in the available documentation.
