NIGP 12088: Tools, Marine Hull and Engine

NIGP Item 12088, Tools, Marine Hull And Engine, captures repair, maintenance, retrofit, and parts-supply services for marine vessels and port equipment that state and local governments own or operate. Recent solicitations show county governments and port authorities procuring specialized engineering and repair work on harbor cranes, boat-ramp construction and restoration, and related maritime infrastructure. Issuing bodies under this code include county boards of commissioners managing public marinas and waterfront facilities, port authorities overseeing mobile harbor equipment, and cooperative purchasing consortia bundling marine equipment needs across multiple jurisdictions.

The most recent opportunities cluster in Florida and Washington. A Florida county issued a Request for Information in September 2026 (due September 29, 2026) on Konecranes engineering, repair, maintenance, retrofits, and parts for a mobile harbor crane at the Port, structured as a Notice of Intent to Designate Sole Source/Sole Brand to evaluate whether competitive alternatives exist before proceeding with a sole-source award. Clay County Board of County Commissioners in Florida solicited bids through an RFB in June 2026 (due July 6, 2026) for repairs, redevelopment, and improvements at Knights Marina Boat Ramp and Lake Shore Boat Ramp, requiring qualified and licensed contractors and performance and payment bonds. Sourcewell, a Minnesota cooperative purchasing vehicle, issued an RFP in May 2026 (due June 16, 2026) for Law Enforcement Equipment on behalf of participating entities including Franklin County, Grant County, Grays Harbor County, Chelan County, and Yakima County in Washington, as well as jurisdictions across the United States and Canada, though this opportunity does not directly align with marine-specific tools and services.
