NIGP 36077: Tile, Composition Asbestos-Vinyl

NIGP 36077 Tile, Composition Asbestos-Vinyl is an Item code under which state and local governments procure specialty flooring materials, including non-slip composition tile and vinyl products for use across educational and municipal facilities. The School Board of Seminole County, Florida's recent sole-source procurement demonstrates the scope: the board is acquiring Kinetex non-slip flooring manufactured by J+J Flooring for district-wide implementation across multiple school facilities. This code captures flooring products that combine durability, slip resistance, and performance specifications suitable for high-traffic institutional environments. School districts represent the primary issuing bodies under this code, though the category encompasses purchasing from various state and local jurisdictions needing specialized flooring solutions for maintenance and facility improvements.

The School Board of Seminole County, Florida posted a Notice of Intent to Sole Source (solicitation number 25260057STL) on September 21, 2026, with a response deadline of October 29, 2025, seeking Kinetex flooring under Florida Administrative Code 6A-1.012(12)(d). The estimated annual expenditure is $800,000, representing a significant district-wide infrastructure investment. Vendors wishing to challenge the sole-source designation or propose comparable products must demonstrate equivalence and contact the School Board's purchasing department directly. J+J Flooring, located in Dalton, Georgia, is the incumbent preferred vendor. The sole-source determination is valid for one year following School Board approval and will require annual revalidation, creating potential renewal opportunity for incumbents or competing vendors demonstrating product comparability.
