NIGP 21012: Blocks, Kiln and Oven

NIGP 21012 Blocks, Kiln And Oven, an Item code, encompasses kiln equipment and related supplies that state and local governments procure for educational and infrastructure purposes. Recent solicitations show school districts buying pottery and glass kilns with full installation and warranty support, while transportation authorities source specialized materials and equipment for major pavement rehabilitation projects. The issuing bodies span K–12 school districts and county transportation departments, with purchasing driven by curriculum needs and infrastructure maintenance schedules rather than a consolidated vendor base.

Cobb County School District in Georgia issued RFQ Q26077 in January 2026 seeking quotes for top-load kilns (Olympic 2327HE), front-load kilns (Olympic FL8E), specialty Raku and glass kilns, and Ventmaster ventilation systems across multiple school locations, with delivery, installation, and one-year price hold required and quotes due January 29, 2026. Santa Clara County in California posted ITB ITBRDAFY260694 in April 2026 for the Central Expressway Pavement Rehabilitation Project, a 142-working-day effort including partial depth recycling, hot mix asphalt overlay, and Portland cement concrete curb and gutter installation, with bids due May 21, 2026. Recent activity concentrates in California and Georgia, with no specific set-asides or enterprise restrictions identified in either solicitation.
