NIGP 13594: Recycled Bricks, Refractories, Clay, Marble and Stone Products

NIGP 13594 Recycled Bricks, Refractories, Clay, Marble and Stone Products, an Item code, encompasses aggregate materials, landscaping stone, and related products that state and local governments purchase for infrastructure maintenance, parks operations, and facility repairs. Recent solicitations reveal purchasing activity focused on bulk aggregate supply (road base, crusher fine, rip-rap, recycled asphalt), dimension stone for landscaping and heritage preservation (flagstone, sandstone, granite boulders), erosion control materials, and specialized stone services including paver installation and brick repointing. Issuing bodies span county governments, municipal public works departments, parks authorities, and cultural institutions. Columbus Consolidated Government (Georgia) and Boulder County Parks and Open Space Department (Colorado) represent typical repeat buyers establishing multi-year supply relationships with volume discounts and tiered vendor arrangements; smaller municipalities such as the City of Sanford (Florida) and the City of Statesboro (Georgia) solicit specific stone services for targeted facility projects or heritage restoration work.

Geographic activity concentrates in the Southeast and Mountain West regions, with recent opportunities posted by Georgia municipalities (Columbus, Statesboro), Florida counties (Hillsborough, Sanford), Colorado counties (Boulder), and supporting procurement frameworks reaching beyond individual states through cooperative purchasing vehicles. Representative recent opportunities include Columbus Consolidated Government's RFB for annual stone supply with delivery requirements and dual-vendor award (due June 17, 2026); Boulder County Parks and Open Space Department's RFQ for pre-qualified landscaping products and erosion control materials under a five-year short-list arrangement (due May 27, 2026); the City of Sanford's IRFQ for paver engraving, installation, and maintenance services at Veterans Memorial Park (due April 30, 2026); and the City of Statesboro's sealed bid for brick repointing and window replacement at the Averitt Center for the Arts with a mandatory 20 percent minority or female business enterprise participation requirement (due March 5, 2026). Contracts typically run two to five years with renewal options, establish fixed pricing for initial terms subject to documented escalation caps, and require proof of liability insurance, E-Verify compliance, and state-specific licensing or registration.
