NIGP 30664 Opaquing And Transparentizing Liquids, Erasing Fluids, And Pastes, Environmentally Certified Products is an Item code under which state and local governments procure specialty industrial fluids, notably antifreeze formulations meeting environmental and performance standards. The City of Detroit Office of Contracting and Procurement recently solicited approximately 24,000 gallons of low silicate, phosphate-free, premium-quality ethylene glycol antifreeze in both concentrate and premixed formulations for the Detroit Department of Transportation's Extended Service Interval program. The scope encompasses bulk supply and 55-gallon drums, with unit pricing quoted per gallon, and includes delivery within three business days, drum pickup, hazardous-materials handling, and used-fluid recovery. Vendors must be active formulator or authorized dealer of commercial antifreeze, hold minimum $1,000,000 liability insurance against accidental spills, and maintain Michigan hazardous-materials transportation licensing. The contract carries a two-year term with renewal options subject to City Council approval.

The Detroit procurement represents recent activity in the code under a city transportation department issuing body. The RFQ issued by the City of Detroit Office of Contracting and Procurement closed October 9, 2026 and included Detroit-based business set-asides (D-BB, D-RB, D-HB, D-SB, D-MB) with equalization credits of one to five percent depending on certification type. Respondents were required to submit notarized City of Detroit Consolidated Affidavits, three years of financial statements, Treasury Clearance, and active System of Awards Management registration; one or multiple awards were to be made on a low-bid basis, with contract work product becoming the sole and exclusive property of the City of Detroit.
