NIGP 33061: Windscreens and Accessories for Fencing

NIGP 33061 Windscreens And Accessories For Fencing, Item tier, covers fencing materials and components—including vinyl-coated and galvanized chain link, vinyl and wood privacy fencing, aluminum rail fencing, and associated hardware—that state and local governments procure as part of site perimeter, security, recreational facility, and infrastructure improvement projects. Recent solicitations show school districts, municipal public works departments, and county authorities buying both material and labor under this code through ITBs and IFBs that bundle fence installation, repair, maintenance, and replacement across multiple property types. Hillsborough County Public Schools in Florida issued ITB 26298-ITB-MST for fencing services encompassing chain link, vinyl, wood, steel decorative, and panel fencing across 237 line items with an August 26, 2026 bid deadline, requiring one-year warranties and FOB Destination pricing capped at 15 percent markup on unlisted materials. The City of Acworth, Georgia solicited replacement of 1,600 linear feet of Antebellum Manufacturing Emily Style Aluminum 3-Rail fencing under IFB 2026-14 with a September 16, 2026 deadline and November 16, 2026 completion requirement. Collier County, Florida has issued multiple large-scale projects incorporating fencing scope: the NEUF Perimeter Fence, Irrigation, and Landscaping project (ITB 268702, $3.4 million anticipated budget, October 8 bid deadline) for 12,712 linear feet of vinyl-coated chain link with barbed wire, and the Big Corkscrew Island Regional Park Phase 2B project (ITB 268622, $31 million anticipated budget) including 5,500 linear feet of fencing within comprehensive park development.

Activity concentrates in Florida and Georgia, where school districts, municipalities, counties, and regional park authorities have posted six recent opportunities combining material specification, installation labor, and warranty requirements. The City of Bartow, Florida issued a FEMA-funded ITB 26-25 for disaster fencing repair and replacement with unit-cost pricing on August 19, 2026, establishing standing capacity for rapid post-hurricane fence restoration through May 31, 2027, permitting awards to up to two vendors. Across these opportunities, fencing work typically includes site preparation, removal of existing materials, installation of specified fence types with concrete-set posts, gates, hardware, and debris disposal, with firm pricing submission in Excel or PDF format, E-Verify verification, and compliance with state prevailing wage or OSHA requirements where applicable. Most solicitations require three to five project references, certificates of insurance naming the issuing body, bid and performance bonds ranging from 5 to 100 percent of contract value, and one-year workmanship warranties. Local vendor preference applies in Collier County procurements; Hillsborough County Public Schools allows contract awards to other public entities within the county at the same terms.
