NIGP 15093: Windows, Frames and Sashes, Fiberglass

NIGP 15093 Windows, Frames and Sashes, Fiberglass, an Item code, covers the supply and installation of fiberglass window systems and components in state and local facilities. Recent solicitations show governments buying complete window replacement and installation projects that encompass demolition of existing systems, supply of new window units with specified performance characteristics (such as Low-E glass, argon insulation, impact resistance, and wind-speed ratings), frame and sash work, sealing, and finishing. Issuing bodies include county government and municipal utilities; Orange County, Florida and the Kissimmee Utility Authority both solicited for window work in 2026.

Florida dominates the recent activity under this code. Orange County issued a sealed bid for the Fredrick Douglas Window Replacement project (Y26-743) with an estimated cost of $319,428.00, seeking aluminum storefront window systems with multiple bid options for impact-resistant and non-impact configurations at an occupied facility in Orlando and Zellwood, with responses due August 13, 2026 through the OpenGov e-Procurement Platform and a non-mandatory pre-bid meeting scheduled for May 14, 2026. The Kissimmee Utility Authority issued RFQ 16-526-CV for supply and turn-key installation of twelve sliding windows with Low-E glass and 100 mph wind-speed rating at a substation pavilion, with a pre-bid meeting on July 22, 2016 and quotations due July 29, 2016; the project attracted three bidders ranging from $13,147.00 to $28,411.54. Both projects required comprehensive insurance ($1,000,000 combined single limit minimum), compliance with Florida Building Code and ANSI/ASTM standards, state licensure, and adherence to OSHA and EPA regulations. Evaluation criteria included pricing, workmanship quality, contractor capabilities, and warranty terms.
