NIGP 20186: Undergarments and Sleepwear, Women's

NIGP 20186 Undergarments and Sleepwear, Women's is an Item code under which state and local governments procure brassieres, panties, slips, nightgowns, pajamas, and related intimate apparel for women. The code sees use primarily in correctional facilities, detention centers, and institutional settings where jurisdictions furnish clothing to incarcerated or resident populations, though school districts and other public agencies occasionally solicit under it for employee or program-specific needs. Issuing bodies span state departments of corrections, county sheriff's offices and jails, city detention facilities, and state institutional agencies serving adult and juvenile populations. The work is straightforward commodity procurement — RFQs and ITBs for bulk quantities of standardized garments, typically with specifications for material, sizing, durability, and compliance with institutional dress codes.

The source does not contain recent state or local contract opportunities posted under NIGP 20186, so current geographic distribution and representative solicitations cannot be characterized from available records.
