NIGP 32071: Screws, Coach, Drywall, Eye, Lag, Phillips, Set, Thumb, etc.

NIGP 32071 Screws, Coach, Drywall, Eye, Lag, Phillips, Set, Thumb, Etc., an Item code, covers fasteners and related hardware that state and local governments procure as discrete commodities or as components within larger construction, maintenance, and repair contracts. Recent solicitations show state and local agencies buying these items both as standalone inventory (metal fasteners, hardware, and supplies maintained for ongoing operational use) and embedded within scope for drywall installation, interior restoration, and commercial trades work. County public works departments, city facilities management, housing authorities, and regional water districts are the primary issuing bodies using this code, often bundling fasteners and hardware with broader materials or services procurements rather than soliciting them as standalone line items.

The Orange County (California) Public Works Department posted IFB0803113903DS on October 7, 2026, for various metals and related hardware—a three-year contract with an aggregate ceiling of $855,000 and response due November 4, 2026—that explicitly includes miscellaneous welding supplies and fasteners across 34 line items of steel, aluminum, stainless steel, and galvanized materials. The Harris County Department of Education (HCDE) and cooperative partner Choice Partners issued a Competitive Sealed Proposal on May 15, 2026, for Painting, Drywall, Acoustical Ceilings, and Flooring services with a maximum annual aggregate price of $200 million, incorporating drywall installation and finishing work that relies on fastener components. The Housing Authority of the City of Alameda solicited water damage repairs (IFB AHA-HD-009, due August 5, 2026) encompassing drywall replacement and interior restoration, and the City of Lubbock posted ITB2619925SR for Commercial Trades & Repair Services (due October 20, 2026) with multiple contract awards intended. Recent activity concentrates in California (Orange County, Alameda) and Texas (Harris County Education, Lubbock, North Texas Municipal Water District), with procurement framed as multi-year master agreements or as-needed indefinite-quantity arrangements rather than fixed-unit purchases.
