NIGP 28516: Commutators, Resurfacers, Stone

NIGP 28516 Commutators, Resurfacers, Stone is an Item code capturing aggregate and stone materials that state and local governments buy for public works, infrastructure maintenance, and operational needs. The code encompasses finished and raw stone products—crushed stone base, rip-rap, graded aggregate base, screening materials, and classified stone grades—procured on both one-time and annual contract bases by public works departments, school districts, and consolidated city governments. Columbus Consolidated Government's recent annual stone contract, which targets approximately 200 tons of monthly usage across fourteen stone classifications with F.O.B. delivery within city limits or pickup at the vendor's plant, exemplifies the scale and scope of activity under this code. Issuing bodies include municipalities (consolidated city governments), independent school districts, and state-level cooperative purchasing vehicles established to serve multiple jurisdictions.

Columbus Consolidated Government issued an RFB (Request for Bids) due June 17, 2026 for annual stone procurement under a two-year initial term with three optional one-year renewal periods, awarding to the two lowest responsive, responsible bidders as Primary and Secondary Contractors with fixed pricing for the initial two years and capped five-percent escalation thereafter. Georgia is the confirmed recent activity state. Northside Independent School District in San Antonio, Texas posted an IFB on June 8, 2026 for electrical equipment, parts, supplies, rentals, repairs, and services (due July 1, 2026), which while broader in scope than stone alone, demonstrates cross-category procurement activity under related commodity codes across Texas school districts. Activity is concentrated in the South and Southwest, with Georgia and Texas showing confirmed recent solicitations.
