NIGP 21025: Concrete Pilings

NIGP 21025 Concrete Pilings (Item) encompasses the supply and installation of concrete structural elements used to support bridges, roadway infrastructure, and emergency stabilization projects across state and local jurisdictions. State and local governments procure concrete pilings primarily for bridge construction and replacement, pavement foundation work, and emergency infrastructure repair when soil conditions or structural failures require immediate stabilization. Issuing bodies include state transportation departments, county public works and harbor authorities, municipal public works departments, and special-purpose districts managing infrastructure assets. Recent activity shows repeat procurement from state DOT agencies and county engineering offices focused on bridge projects and emergency causeway stabilization.

State procurement of concrete pilings clusters in the Southeast and Pacific Northwest, with significant recent activity in Florida, Illinois, Washington, Utah, Georgia, California, and Mississippi. Representative recent solicitations include Orange County, Florida's emergency procurement (Y26-742) for full replacement of Wallington Drive Bridge (No. 754190) and Egret Way Bridge (No. 754187), estimated at $6,202,246.05 with sealed bids due July 7, 2026 via the OpenGov e-Procurement Platform, which incorporated helical-pile specifications and extensive geotechnical analysis; Okaloosa County, Florida's ITB for precast or prestressed concrete bridge materials for Bone Creek Bridge on Poplar Head Church Road (ITBPW4026) requiring 35 pieces of 50-foot-length pilings for a federally grant-funded project with bids due April 29, 2026; Washington State Department of Transportation's RFQQ (HQ401687R) for 10 Precast Prestressed Concrete WF42G Wide Flange Girders for the I-90 Hansen Road Overcrossing, limited to manufacturers on the Qualified Products List, with bids due May 12, 2026; and the Illinois Department of Natural Resources' emergency procurement of sheet piling material (44 sections of PZC-18 interlocking steel sheet piling, 40 feet long, and corner connectors) for Horseshoe Lake State Park causeway stabilization, awarded to Hammer & Steel Global, LLC for $109,139.20 on June 23, 2026. Davis-Bacon prevailing wage requirements, federal Buy America provisions where applicable, and compliance with AASHTO standards govern most state and local bridge piling work. Set-asides and local vendor preferences vary by jurisdiction; several Florida and California solicitations include CBE or local preference scoring.
