NIGP 07332: Trailers, Transport, Tank

NIGP 07332 Trailers, Transport, Tank is an Item code under which state and local governments procure specialized transport trailers—fuel tankers, spray tank systems, grapple dump trailers, refuse transfer trailers, and mobile service units—along with associated repair, maintenance, and parts supply. Recent solicitations reflect active demand across municipal fleet operations, public works departments, state transportation agencies, and university facilities for both one-time equipment purchases and ongoing maintenance contracts. The issuing-body mix spans city departments of public works (Atlanta), county commissions (Palm Beach, Habersham, DeKalb), state DOTs (Texas, Missouri), and state universities (Texas A&M–Kingsville). Cities and counties dominate the recent activity, with repeat buyers including the City of Atlanta Department of Public Works and Habersham County Board of Commissioners, which posted multiple grapple dump trailer RFQs within weeks of each other. Public works fleets seek trailers for debris management, equipment transport, and utility operations; state transportation departments focus on specialized spray tank systems and fuel tankers for road maintenance; and municipal departments pursue both capital equipment and service contracts covering repair, parts, and emergency response.

Geographic concentration centers on Texas, Georgia, Arizona, and Florida, with secondary activity in Missouri. The Texas Department of Transportation issued at least five separate spray tank and fuel trailer solicitations between May and August 2026, establishing it as a standout repeat buyer under this code. Representative recent opportunities include the City of Atlanta Department of Public Works IFB for heavy-duty trailers, repair services, and parts (response due October 21, 2026); Palm Beach County Board of County Commissioners IFB for a 9,000-gallon fuel tanker (due November 19, 2026); Habersham County RFQ for a 18'–20' grapple dump trailer with hydraulic arm (due October 14, 2026); Texas A&M–Kingsville RFP for a fully outfitted 20-foot mobile concession trailer (due September 30, 2026); and the City of Phoenix Public Works sealed-offer solicitation for a five-year contract covering hydraulic lifts, transport trailers, and warehouse utility equipment (offers due October 6, 2026). TxDOT's emergency-purchase spray tank trailers under Texas Government Code 2155.137 represent recurring small-volume, time-sensitive procurements with firm fixed-price, low-bid evaluation and 12-month warranty requirements.
