About NIGP 245
NIGP 245 Dairy Equipment And Supplies is a Class code that covers dairy facility equipment, components, and consumables for school nutrition programs, municipal parks and recreation departments, and other state and local operations. The recent opportunities posted under this code reflect school district demand for cold storage and refrigeration equipment used in child nutrition services, alongside consumable food service supplies tied to dairy and meal preparation. State and local agencies purchasing under this code include school districts (Stockton Unified, Meriden Public Schools, Bridgeport Board of Education, KIPP Texas Public Schools), municipal parks and recreation departments (City of Palm Bay), and county social service agencies. School districts represent the dominant buyer base, driven by federal Child Nutrition Program requirements and the need to replace or upgrade equipment ahead of school years.
Representative recent opportunities include KIPP Texas Public Schools' RFP 2526-004 (June 25, 2026), which sought 73 commercial-grade milk coolers for 31 Houston-area campuses with delivery and installation by August 1, 2026, and Stockton Unified School District's IFB 26-27-05 (August 8, 2026) for fresh, whole grain bread and bakery products meeting USDA Child Nutrition Program standards, with weekly delivery required and bids due September 1, 2026. Geographic activity concentrates in California (Stockton Unified), Texas (KIPP Texas, Educational Service and Buying Consortium), Florida (City of Palm Bay, Meriden), and Connecticut (City of Meriden). Most school district solicitations require compliance with USDA nutrition standards, Buy American Act provisions where federal Child Nutrition Program funds are used, commercial general liability insurance of $1 million to $2 million per occurrence, and food safety documentation including HACCP compliance and allergen labeling. Contract terms typically run one year with options for up to four additional one-year renewals, and pricing remains firm unless supported by Consumer Price Index adjustments or documented market changes.
