NIGP 20140: Gloves, Cowhide/Leather (All Types)

NIGP 20140 Gloves, Cowhide/Leather (All Types), Item code, covers state and local procurement of protective and work gloves in multiple materials and specifications for operational, maintenance, and safety use. State and local governments soliciting under this code purchase latex and nitrile exam gloves, cowhide and leather work gloves (including branded models such as Mechanix), chemical-resistance and cut-protection gloves, coated grip gloves, and disposable medical-grade neoprene gloves for field operations, facility maintenance, utilities work, and employee protection. Issuing bodies include municipal utilities departments, county water and natural resources agencies, independent school districts, and higher education institutions. Long Beach Public Utilities Department and Hillsborough County (Florida) have recently solicited blanket purchase agreements with firm pricing over two-year terms; Atlanta Public Schools has posted concurrent bids combining gloves with trash liners; and Texas A&M University established a master-agreement vendor pool for medical, surgical, and protective gloves.

Recent activity spans California, Florida, Georgia, and Texas. The Long Beach Public Utilities Department issued RFQ UD26343 (due July 22, 2026) for 38 line items across six glove categories including latex, nitrile, cowhide leather, and coated work gloves, with a local preference award adjustment of ten percent for Long Beach-based vendors, firm pricing for two years with no escalation permitted, and five-business-day delivery required. Hillsborough County Board of County Commissioners issued ITB 26-00171 (closed March 23, 2026) for branded leather work gloves, oily-grip coated, chemical-resistance, cut-protection, and disposable medical gloves across specified sizes under a two-year blanket agreement with an estimated value of $213,855.20 and annual CPI-U escalation provisions. Atlanta Public Schools issued two concurrent solicitations (due July 10, 2026) combining trash liners and gloves as a single commodity bid.
