NIGP 090: Bakery Equipment, Commercial

NIGP 090 Bakery Equipment, Commercial is a Class code representing the food production and food service support equipment and supplies that state and local governments procure for cafeteria operations, correctional facilities, and institutional food service. The recent opportunities block shows bakery and food service procurement activity dominated by school districts purchasing consumables and finished products rather than equipment—bread and bakery products, food service paper goods, and general grocery items for child nutrition programs. One specialized equipment procurement appears: the New Hampshire Department of Administrative Services issued an RFB for a dough sheeter/moulder for the Concord NH Prison, due May 26, 2026, requesting one Dough Tech Model No. AM435 with stainless steel moulding plates and one year of parts and labor warranty. School districts are the most active issuing bodies under this code's practical scope, with Stockton Unified School District (California) posting multiple solicitations for bread products and food service paper supplies, the City of Meriden, Connecticut, and Bridgeport Board of Education seeking food service paper goods and grocery items, and the Educational Service and Buying Consortium in Texas soliciting vocational (CTE) equipment and supplies that may include food service components.

California, Connecticut, and Florida show the most recent activity. Beyond the New Hampshire prison equipment bid, state and local procurement under NIGP 090 in practice centers on recurring food service consumables and finished baked goods rather than bakery equipment itself. Stockton Unified School District issued IFB 26-27-05 for fresh bread and bakery products (whole wheat sandwich loaves, hot dog buns, English muffins, breadsticks, hamburger buns, hoagie rolls, and bagels) with bids due September 1, 2026, requiring weekly delivery and USDA whole grain-rich compliance; the City of Meriden, Connecticut, posted RFP 027-04 for food service paper goods and disposable products to supply 8,200 students across 13 schools, with proposals due July 16, 2026, and an anticipated contract value of $210,000. The Bridgeport Board of Education sought bids on over 1,100 line items spanning breakfast items, cereals, baked goods, frozen products, condiments, and meat products under Buy American and Child Nutrition Program standards, with bids due June 30, 2026. Opportunities in this code are driven by school district meal service demands and institutional food production rather than commercial bakery equipment sales to state or local operations.
