NIGP 15537: Farm Structures, Prefabricated (Silos, etc.)

NIGP 15537 Farm Structures, Prefabricated (Silos, Etc.), an Item code, encompasses the design and construction of modular buildings, shelters, and specialized agricultural or municipal structures. State and local governments solicit under this code for turnkey facility projects where prefabricated or modular construction methods offer schedule or cost advantages over traditional site-built work. The issuing bodies include municipalities, county governments, and regional procurement consortia acting as cooperative purchasing vehicles for member jurisdictions.

Recent solicitations show activity concentrated in Texas and Florida. H-GAC (Houston-Galveston Area Council), a Texas procurement consortium, posted an RFQ for modular buildings, shelters, and structures with a response deadline of July 30, 2026, requiring vendor registration through its OpenGov-based procurement portal. The City of DeBary, Florida issued an IFB for construction services on a 7,962 gross square foot fire station with a $1,750,000 engineer's estimate and a March 30, 2016 sealed-bid deadline, involving site improvements, utilities, and associated infrastructure on a 2.0-acre parcel.
