About NIGP 08555
NIGP 08555 Bags, Sand is an Item code covering sand and sandbags procured by state and local governments for operational and infrastructure purposes. State and local buyers under this code solicit both finished bags—trash and recycling bags in standard and specialty sizes—and bulk sand delivery for emergency sandbag operations, beach nourishment, and sports-field maintenance. Recent solicitations show municipalities and counties acquiring polyethylene bags with specific closure options and technical specifications (film thickness, dart impact strength, drop-test performance), as well as sand by the ton for fill, erosion control, and landscape applications. Issuing bodies include city procurement offices, county boards of commissioners, and departments of parks and recreation. The City of Richardson, Texas and Jackson County, Missouri appear as repeat buyers of containerized sand products, while Hillsborough County, Florida and Collier County, Florida are active in bulk sand procurement for emergency and coastal operations.
Geographic activity is concentrated in the South and Southeast, with recent opportunities in Texas, Florida, and Missouri. Representative recent solicitations include the City of Richardson's Invitation to Bid for recycle and trash bags (Solicitation 4426, due April 28, 2026, estimated $300,000 annually), Hillsborough County's ITB for sand delivery for sandbag operations (ITB-26-00073, due March 27, 2026, estimated $617,490 over three years), Collier County's grant-funded ITB for beach-compatible sand supply (ITB 26-8632, due February 26, 2026), and Jackson County's ITB for turf-grade sand in bagged and bulk formats (ITB 26-007, due March 24, 2026, estimated $10,000 annually). Evaluation criteria emphasize price alongside technical compliance, experience, and quality control; several solicitations require proof of manufacturing or supply capability, municipal references, and insurance. No set-aside designations are mandated in these opportunities, though local vendor preferences and M/WBE disclosure requirements appear in some jurisdictions.
