NIGP 07036: School Buses, Complete, Small Vehicle Type

NIGP 07036 School Buses, Complete, Small Vehicle Type is an Item code that has been inactivated as of January 1, 2006, with purchasing activity redirected to Classes 071, 072, and 073. The code historically covered procurement of complete small school buses; however, the single recent state-local opportunity in the source reflects the modern reality of school transportation contracting—Stockton Unified School District solicited specialized transportation services for students with severe disabilities rather than vehicle acquisition. State and local issuing bodies soliciting under the successor classes (which now govern school bus procurement) include school districts of varying sizes. The Stockton Unified School District RFP, posted October 5, 2026, exemplifies current work: Walton Special Center – Severe Special Needs Transportation Services, an RFP due October 30, 2026, calling for safe, reliable transportation with individualized accommodations, specialized equipment, additional supervision, and coordination with District personnel for students with significant physical, medical, behavioral, developmental, sensory, communication, and mobility needs.

The solicitation spans San Joaquin County and Sunnyvale City in California. Addendum #1 Revision was issued October 5, 2026, addressing pricing terms, contract duration, renewal options, set-asides, incumbent contractor information, and other material terms; bidders must review both the original RFP and the addendum in full. The source provides only one recent opportunity, indicating limited current activity under the inactivated code itself, though the redirection to Classes 071, 072, and 073 suggests that school bus procurement has consolidated under those successor classes.
