NIGP 36011: Carpet and Rug Mills

NIGP 36011 Carpet and Rug Mills, an Item code, encompasses commercial carpet tile and modular flooring installation and replacement across institutional and multifamily facilities. State and local governments procure under this code primarily to refresh worn carpet systems in office buildings, educational facilities, and residential housing, typically specifying branded tile products (Shaw Respond Tile, Mannington Quadrant Collection, Kinetex) and bundling removal, disposal, subfloor preparation, adhesive installation, and base work into single lump-sum contracts. The issuing bodies soliciting under the code include state authorities and agencies, municipal governments, school districts, housing authorities, and special-purpose districts; Georgia's World Congress Center Authority has posted multiple competitive sealed bid solicitations in the past six months, establishing itself as a repeat buyer in this space.

Recent activity clusters in Georgia, Connecticut, Wisconsin, and Florida.
