NIGP 24042: Enamelware: Small Cooking Utensils, Pots and Pans, etc.

NIGP 24042 Enamelware: Small Cooking Utensils, Pots And Pans, Etc., an Item code, covers the purchase of small kitchen cookware and utensils — including mixing bowls, frying pans, stock pots, and related food-service equipment — that state and local governments acquire for school cafeterias, institutional kitchens, and operational use. Issuers range from school districts and county governments to regional cooperative purchasing bodies; school districts appear as active buyers for facility kitchen outfitting and replacement.

Recent opportunities show concentrated activity in Georgia. Columbia County School District posted an RFQ in September 2026 for kitchen equipment for Lakeside High School, seeking 190 line items of small equipment including 5- to 40-quart mixing bowls, cooking pans, food storage containers, and serving equipment, with delivery to the school and preferred vendors including Vollrath, Cambro, and Winco. Gwinnett County issued a smallwares catalog discount contract solicitation (B-2714AM) with responses due October 16, 2026, through its Bonfire procurement portal. A May 2026 Sourcewell RFP for Law Enforcement Equipment—posted on behalf of multiple Washington state counties and available through the Sourcewell Procurement Portal—falls outside the scope of this code based on its focus on law enforcement rather than cooking utensils. School district kitchen equipment procurements under this code typically require new equipment only, multi-item line-by-line pricing in spreadsheet format, business references, and tax-exempt documentation.
