NIGP 13554: Stucco

NIGP 13554 Stucco, an Item code, covers exterior stucco repair, installation, and restoration work that state and local governments solicit for building envelope maintenance and facade rehabilitation. Recent state and local opportunities show municipalities and school districts purchasing comprehensive stucco services including demolition, surface preparation, application over masonry substrates, joint sealing, crack repair, repainting, and finished warranties. The work is solicited through ITBs and RFQs with lump-sum pricing, mandatory pre-bid meetings, and performance bonds secured by commercial general liability insurance. Bidders must hold state contractor licenses (typically five years of documented experience in stucco installation and repair), and contracts often require 70–100 percent of work performed by the contractor's own forces with completion timelines ranging from 14 business days to 90 calendar days.

Activity under the code concentrates in Florida, where the City of Ocala issued ITB FAC/261146 for approximately 1,100 square feet of exterior concrete stucco repair at City Hall (110 SE Watula Avenue) with bids due October 2, 2026, and the School Board of Pinellas County issued ITB 26-CD-011 for comprehensive waterproofing and stucco crack repair at Lealman Innovation Academy with an estimated contract value of approximately $1,275,000 and bids due April 20, 2026. The City of Kissimmee issued RFQ No. 3 for exterior stucco demolition and replacement at Haven on Vine (response deadline July 8, 2026, now passed), subject to Davis-Bacon wage requirements and Build America Buy America compliance. Issuing bodies include municipal facilities departments, independent school districts, and city governments pursuing building envelope rehabilitation on civic and educational assets.
