NIGP 06569: Pickup Truck Bodies

NIGP 06569 Pickup Truck Bodies, an Item code, covers chassis-mounted utility bodies, service bodies, and specialized enclosures installed on light and medium-duty truck platforms that state and local governments procure for fleet operations. Recent solicitations show counties, cities, school districts, and transit authorities sourcing complete turnkey units — pickup trucks with pre-installed or field-installed service bodies and utility enclosures — rather than bodies alone, reflecting market practice where chassis and body are often procured as integrated systems or the body installation is bundled with chassis acquisition. The work includes heavy-duty F-350 Super Duty and F-550 platforms equipped with Knapheide and Reading service bodies for utility work, three-quarter-ton pickups with standard configurations, and medium-duty chassis with nine-foot utility service enclosures built to specifications for county fleet use.

Issuing bodies span county purchasing departments (Chatham County, Georgia; Madison County, Mississippi; Sacramento County, California; Rockwood R-6 School District, Missouri), municipal infrastructure and fleet services departments (City of Olathe, Kansas; Eastern Municipal Water District, California), and county road departments. The code sees activity across California, Georgia, Missouri, Mississippi, Ohio, Kansas, and Texas. Representative recent opportunities include Chatham County's paired competitive sealed-bid procurements for one 2026 Ford F-350 XL with Knapheide body (Model KC108M2094, IFB due April 7, 2026) and one 2026 Ford F-350 XL Super Duty with Reading Service Body (Model CL ST 108 SW RW1 40 U AA FFR, IFB due April 7, 2026); Sacramento County's RFB for construction and installation of nine-foot utility service bodies on three to six 10,200-pound GVWR cab-and-chassis units with minimum and maximum purchase quantities during the first contract year (RFB due February 18, 2026); and Rockwood R-6 School District's RFB for one 2026 Ford F-550 Super Duty with snow plow prep package and high-capacity tow (RFB due July 17, 2026, with separate procurement for truck body installation to follow). Most solicitations are IFBs or RFBs with two-week to four-week response windows. Chatham County applied a 30 percent combined Minority/Woman Business Enterprise participation goal to its service-body procurements; most other jurisdictions in the recent block did not specify set-asides.
