About NIGP 165
NIGP 165 Cafeteria and Kitchen Equipment, Commercial — a Class code — encompasses the supply and installation of commercial food service equipment, refrigeration systems, and related supplies that state and local governments procure to equip and maintain institutional kitchens across schools, courthouses, parks, and county facilities. Recent solicitations show school districts dominating the buyer base, with independent school districts in Texas (Klein ISD, Schertz-Cibolo-Universal City ISD, Mesquite ISD, Magnolia ISD, Northside ISD, Somerset ISD, Harlingen Consolidated ISD), Michigan (Warren Consolidated Schools, Clio Area Schools), and Florida (Pinellas County School District) leading activity; county-level food service operations, colleges, and specialized facilities (detention centers, fire stations, parks) represent secondary demand. Work ranges from single-unit equipment purchases (ice makers, fryers, dishwashers, food cutters, milk coolers) to comprehensive serving-line renovations requiring design coordination, full installation, and removal of existing equipment. Equipment specs commonly reference NSF/ANSI certification, UL listing, ADA compliance, and integration with existing utility infrastructure; vendors frequently manage delivery, installation labor, startup testing, and extended warranty provisions as part of all-inclusive pricing. Recent opportunities reflect federal compliance requirements tied to USDA Child Nutrition Programs and National School Lunch Program participation, including Buy American certifications, prevailing wage obligations where applicable, and compliance with 2 CFR Part 200.
Activity concentrates in Texas (Klein ISD, SCUC ISD, Mesquite ISD, Northside ISD, Magnolia ISD, Harlingen CISD, Somerset ISD, Collin County), Florida (Pinellas County Schools, Hillsborough County, Orange County), Michigan (Warren Consolidated Schools, Clio Area Schools, Macomb County), and northeastern states (Connecticut, Massachusetts, New Hampshire). Representative recent solicitations include Northside Independent School District (San Antonio) issuing IFB 2026-078 on May 5 for kitchen equipment parts, supplies, rentals, repairs, and services across 132 schools, due May 28, 2026; KIPP Texas Public Schools posting RFP 2526-004 on June 25 for 73 milk coolers with delivery and installation, proposals due July 13, 2026; Schertz-Cibolo-Universal City ISD issuing RFP 26-024S on July 6 for commercial food service serving-line equipment at two intermediate schools, due August 4, 2026; and City of Meriden, Connecticut soliciting RFP 027-04 on July 16 for food service paper goods and disposable products to supply 8,200 students across 13 school sites, due July 16, 2026, with anticipated contract value of $210,000 for the 2026-2027 school year.
