NIGP 13505: Alabaster, Gypsum, etc.

NIGP 13505 Alabaster, Gypsum, Etc., an Item code, covers mineral-based building materials and construction supplies that state and local governments procure for building maintenance, renovation, and specialized construction projects. Recent solicitations show minimal direct purchasing under this code; the most relevant activity involves gypsum-based materials and finishes embedded within larger construction contracts rather than standalone material procurement.

The source provides no recent opportunities specifically soliciting alabaster or gypsum products as standalone commodities or services. The City of Folkston, Georgia's March 2026 IFB for a train caboose toilet building includes roofing, structural steel, concealed-fastener wall panels, and mechanical systems, but does not isolate gypsum or alabaster procurement. Sourcewell's May 2026 RFP for law enforcement equipment and Williamson County Purchasing Department's July 2026 relocation notice fall outside this code's scope entirely. Activity under this code appears limited in the recent state and local procurement record; vendors pursuing work here should monitor building maintenance and construction project solicitations from state departments of transportation, facilities management, and public works, as well as municipal and county building departments, rather than expecting standalone material requests.
