NIGP 16537: Dunnage Racks

NIGP 16537 Dunnage Racks, an Item code, covers storage and material-handling equipment that state and local governments procure as components of broader kitchen and food-service operations. Based on recent solicitation activity, the code encompasses items such as racks, shelving, and related support equipment used in commercial kitchen environments, though it typically appears as a line-item offering within larger composite procurements rather than as a standalone category. State and local issuing bodies soliciting under this code include school districts managing multi-location food-service operations, with no indication of significant activity from other jurisdiction types in the recent record.
