NIGP 06569: Pickup Truck Bodies

NIGP 06569 Pickup Truck Bodies, an Item code, covers the procurement of new pickup trucks and utility service bodies mounted on truck chassis by state and local governments. State and local buyers use this code to source standard commercial pickup trucks (typically three-quarter-ton and one-ton models) configured for operations, grounds maintenance, animal control, and fleet mobility, as well as specialized utility service bodies built and installed on purchased chassis. The category includes both the base vehicle procurement and the fabrication and installation of aftermarket utility bodies that convert bare chassis into functional service vehicles. School districts, county sheriff's departments, municipal utilities, and county and municipal public works departments comprise the primary issuing bodies, with school districts and counties appearing most frequently in recent solicitations.

Recent opportunities span multiple states with activity in Missouri, Ohio, Arizona, Georgia, Texas, and California.
