NIGP 07541: Jacks, Safety Stands, Portable Cranes, and Parts (for Automobiles, Trailers, Trucks, and Transmissions)

NIGP 07541 Jacks, Safety Stands, Portable Cranes, and Parts (For Automobiles, Trailers, Trucks, and Transmissions) is an Item code covering equipment and components used to lift, support, or position heavy vehicles and machinery during maintenance, repair, or operational activities. State and local governments procure portable hydraulic floor jacks, electric jack systems for transit vehicle maintenance, grapple dump trailers with integrated crane systems, and replacement parts such as follower assemblies and hinges for refuse trucks and municipal fleet equipment. Issuing bodies span state transportation authorities (Illinois Tollway, Utah Transit Authority), county governments (Habersham County in Georgia, Orange County in California, Collier County in Florida), cities (Austin, Tucson, South Fulton), school districts (Griffin-Spalding County School System in Georgia), and special-purpose procurement cooperatives (Florida Sheriffs Association). Recent activity shows repeat procurement from Orange County across multiple equipment categories and maintenance services, and from Arizona and Florida jurisdictions.

Geographic activity concentrates in California, Florida, Georgia, Illinois, Arizona, and Utah, with sporadic activity elsewhere. Representative recent opportunities include Habersham County Board of Commissioners' IFQ for a grapple dump trailer with an 18'–20' deck-over hydraulic dump bed and 21' reach grapple arm, responses due October 15, 2026; the Illinois Tollway's RFQ for ten twenty-ton air hydraulic floor jacks meeting Norco Model 72230A specifications, quotes due July 8, 2026; the Utah Transit Authority's procurement for a portable electric jack system to support commuter rail vehicle maintenance, proposals due June 9, 2026; and the State of Texas's ITB for refuse truck parts (follower assembly and hinge), bids due September 30, 2026. Collier County's ITB for crane and hoist preventative maintenance and repair services, bids due August 31, 2026, reflects the code's overlap with equipment support contracts and may offer service-oriented entry points. The code attracts vendors supplying OEM parts, specialized lifting equipment, and maintenance services to municipal fleets and transit systems; pursuit merit depends on manufacturing capability, OEM authorization where required, and service capacity for emergency-response and preventive-maintenance contracts.
