NIGP 10512: Ball Bearings and Parts

NIGP 10512 Ball Bearings and Parts is an Item code encompassing mechanical components and hardware used in facility maintenance, equipment repair, and operations support across state and local government. Recent state and local solicitations under this code reflect the broad range of industrial and mechanical supplies that governments procure to maintain buildings, systems, and equipment — including motors, pumps, bearings, fixtures, electrical components, and related hardware organized by functional category rather than single-item specificity. Issuing bodies soliciting under the code include county facility and project management departments responsible for maintaining county-owned infrastructure and support facilities. The work involves supplying pre-stocked inventory or fulfilling purchase orders for replacement parts and consumables on demand, with typical response requirements including pricing on a minimum number of line items and adherence to delivery timelines and payment terms set by the purchasing jurisdiction.

San Bernardino County Project & Facilities Management posted ITB 6391 in May 2026 for parts and supplies spanning over 500 line items across multiple categories including HVAC components, electrical supplies, motors and pumps, plumbing materials, and building hardware, with a response deadline of June 19, 2026 and a tentative contract start date of July 1, 2026. The procurement required bidders to submit pricing on a minimum of 20 items with 14-day delivery performance and Net 60 payment terms, and included a 5 percent local vendor preference for businesses with principal place of business within San Bernardino County. Geographic activity under this code appears concentrated in California, though the recent-opportunities block provides limited jurisdictional breadth to characterize broader regional demand.
