NIGP 34008: Cabinets and Covers (for Fire Extinguishers, Fire Hose and Racks, Valves, etc.)

NIGP 34008 Cabinets And Covers (For Fire Extinguishers, Fire Hose And Racks, Valves, Etc.), an Item code, encompasses fire protection equipment housings and storage components that state and local governments procure as discrete supply items or as part of larger facility fire safety upgrades. Recent solicitations show state and local buyers purchasing fire hoses, detector check valves, fire hose fittings and accessories, and fire alarm system components, typically bundled within broader fire safety, inspection, and maintenance contracts rather than as standalone cabinet and cover purchases. Issuing bodies span county water districts, municipal fire services, county sheriff's offices, transit authorities, and city facility management operations. The Alameda County Water District, Gwinnett County Department of Water Resources and Financial Services, Clay County Board of County Commissioners, City of Phoenix, City of South Fulton, Port Authority of New York and New Jersey, and Harlingen Consolidated Independent School District all posted solicitations in the past three months involving fire suppression equipment and components aligned with this code's scope.

Recent activity concentrates in the Southeast and Southwest, with Georgia (Gwinnett County), Florida (Clay County, Collier County), Arizona (Phoenix), and Texas (Harlingen) showing multiple postings between March and July 2026, while California (Alameda County) and the New York-New Jersey Port Authority represent coastal industrial and transportation sectors. Representative opportunities include Gwinnett County's IWQ 128186 for the purchase of 100 fire hoses (250 psi, 50 feet, 1 inch diameter) due May 19, 2026; the Port Authority of New York and New Jersey's Bid #6000003228 for a two-year requirements contract supplying approximately 463 units of 1.5-inch by 50-foot fire hoses and related fittings to multiple warehouses, due March 17, 2026; and the City of Phoenix's IFB-PCC-26-0184 for five-year fire sprinkler inspection, testing, and maintenance services across 12 facilities, including quarterly waterflow switch and test valve inspections, due July 29, 2026. Clay County Board of County Commissioners solicited IFB 25/26-017 for complete fire alarm system replacement at the jail facility, including 13 sprinkler waterflow indicators, due May 4, 2026.
