NIGP 07522: Creepers

NIGP 07522 Creepers, an Item code, covers wheeled or mobile platforms and stands that mechanics and technicians use to access vehicle undercarriages and elevated work areas during service and repair operations. State and local governments procure creepers primarily through school districts and transportation departments that maintain automotive fleets, though the recent opportunities block contains minimal solicitation detail under this specific code.

The source includes one substantive recent opportunity: the School Board of Sarasota County, Florida issued Bid #26-0124 on January 23, 2026 (due February 12, 2026) for a one-year supply agreement covering automotive and light truck repair parts with options to renew for two additional one-year periods. This solicitation, posted to the VendorLink Portal, establishes firm percentage discounts off manufacturer list prices for new OEM parts across 19 specified manufacturers and permits bidders to propose additional brands and balance-of-line discounts. Delivery is F.O.B. Destination with freight prepaid to the SBSC Transportation Garage in Osprey, Florida, with stock orders requiring 48-hour delivery and special orders requiring seven business days. The School Board applies Florida preference adjustments for in-state bidders, encourages small and minority business participation, and requires compliance with E-Verify registration, Workers' Compensation and Commercial General Liability insurance, and emergency-response commitments. No minimum dollar value or quantity guarantee is disclosed, and the board reserves the right to source from Florida State contracts or other public entity agreements if more economical. A second notice in the opportunities block is administrative relocation only and does not represent a procurement opportunity.
