NIGP 36078: Tile, Coping Double Slant

NIGP 36078 Tile, Coping Double Slant is an Item code that describes roofing edge and trim metal products, but state and local governments are soliciting it primarily as a component of broader sheet metal fabrication and installation services. Hillsborough County Public Schools (HCPS) in Florida issued RFP 26036 in April 2026 for comprehensive sheet metal services explicitly including coping caps, edge metal, and related roofing work on commercial facilities, with proposals due February 27, 2026. The code appears in solicitations where jurisdictions need metal trim, flashing, and coping materials as part of roofing renovation, maintenance, and repair contracts. School districts and state agencies drive the recent activity under this code, with HCPS representing the largest posted opportunity. The scope includes fabrication, installation, and repair services using aluminum, stainless steel, and copper, with contractors required to hold appropriate Florida licenses and meet SMACNA standards when applicable.

Florida dominates the recent solicitation landscape for this code, with both HCPS in Hillsborough County and the School Board of Seminole County posting opportunities in early 2026. Illinois State Police posted a related flooring-supply procurement (26493ISPADMINB51564) in March 2026 due March 26, 2026, which included metal stair nosing and related trim materials but focused primarily on carpet and vinyl tile rather than coping caps. The HCPS RFP represents the most substantial activity, budgeting approximately 1,340 annual standard labor hours plus materials and non-standard labor for roofing sheet metal operations across three maintenance zones (West, Central, and East), with pricing firm for the initial term and up to four one-year renewals. HCPS anticipated awarding to up to three primary vendors by maintenance area with secondary backup contractors, requiring two-hour emergency response and compliance with foreign-country ownership prohibitions. Small Business Enterprise participation was available with alternative payment terms such as "pay upon approval."
