NIGP 36052: Runners, Rubber and Synthetic

NIGP 36052 Runners, Rubber And Synthetic, an Item code, encompasses resilient flooring products that state and local governments procure for facility-wide deployment across educational, administrative, and operational spaces. The School Board of Seminole County, Florida's recent sole source procurement demonstrates the scope: the district is acquiring Kinetex non-slip flooring manufactured by J+J Flooring for district-wide implementation across multiple school facilities, representing an estimated annual expenditure of $800,000. School districts emerge as the primary issuing body under this code, though the limited posting history suggests flooring procurement activity may span counties and municipalities as well. The nature of the work is straightforward procurement of manufactured resilient flooring products, typically specified by brand or performance standard, with implementation across multiple district buildings.

The School Board of Seminole County's Notice of Intent to Sole Source (solicitation 25260057STL, due October 29, 2025) represents recent activity in Florida. The sole source process allows alternative proposals and product-equivalence challenges until the deadline, with J+J Flooring of Dalton, Georgia identified as the incumbent and preferred vendor. The procurement authority is Travis Loyd at Loydtz@scps.k12.fl.us. The limited recent-opportunities record suggests this Item code sees sporadic rather than continuous solicitation activity; the Seminole County posting is the only indexed opportunity in the current dataset. Geographic visibility concentrates in Florida based on this record, though state and local flooring procurement is likely distributed nationally. Vendors pursuing this code should monitor school district capital-improvement and facilities-modernization RFPs and sole source notices, which typically include flooring as a line item or standalone deliverable.
