NIGP 13570: Tile, Quarry

NIGP 13570 Tile, Quarry is an Item code encompassing quarried stone products used in state and local construction, infrastructure, and facilities projects. However, the recent state and local procurement activity indexed under this code does not reflect traditional tile or quarry material sourcing. Instead, the indexed opportunity represents a cooperative purchasing vehicle for law enforcement equipment established through Sourcewell, a Minnesota local government unit and service cooperative operating under Washington state law (RCW 39.34). This mismatch signals either a data classification issue in the source system or a broader cooperative procurement category assigned to multi-commodity contracting frameworks that include quarried materials as one component among many.

Sourcewell issued RFP #061626 on May 12, 2026, with proposals due June 16, 2026, to establish a contracting solution for law enforcement equipment available to participating jurisdictions across Washington state (Franklin, Grant, Grays Harbor, Chelan, and Yakima counties are named) and participating entities nationwide including K-12 school districts, higher education institutions, tribal governments, and nonprofit organizations. The procurement is administered through the Sourcewell Procurement Portal at https://proportal.sourcewell-mn.gov and does not designate set-asides, incumbent restrictions, or specific award values in available documentation. Vendors submit questions through the portal's Q&A feature or contact Mari Vielma at rfp@sourcewell-mn.gov or 888-894-1930. The resulting contract establishes a framework available for future utilization through participating addenda, allowing selected vendors to serve a broad spectrum of public-sector buyers. Geographic concentration reflects Pacific Northwest (Washington) and Midwest (Minnesota) administrative anchors, with national scope through the cooperative structure.
