NIGP 36084: Tile, Stone

NIGP 36084 Tile, Stone (Item) encompasses specialized flooring products and installation services that state and local governments procure for facility renovation and district-wide infrastructure projects. Recent solicitations show state and local buyers acquiring ceramic and resilient tile flooring, non-slip specialty flooring systems, and complete installation labor including floor preparation, removal, and disposal. The issuing bodies soliciting under this code include independent school districts (Seminole County Schools, Atlanta Public Schools), county governments (Chatham County), and their facility service departments. Installation contracts specify detailed labor requirements—daytime and after-hours scheduling, subcontractor licensing and certification, and furnished labor under vendor supervision—alongside material procurement for broadloom carpet, vinyl composite tile (VCT), rubber and luxury vinyl tile (LVT), ceramic tile, and cove base components.

Recent activity concentrates in Georgia and Florida. Atlanta Public Schools issued two separate ITBs for carpet and flooring installation services with March 18, 2026 deadlines, each requiring responses through the Bonfire portal, pre-bid conferences, and unit pricing per square foot with one-year initial terms and four one-year renewal options. Seminole County Schools, Florida pursued a sole-source Notice of Intent for $800,000 in estimated annual Kinetex non-slip flooring manufactured by J+J Flooring (located in Dalton, Georgia) with an October 29, 2025 deadline to challenge or propose alternatives. Chatham County, Georgia solicited sealed bids for kitchen renovation and flooring replacement at its Counter Narcotics Team facility (due March 12, 2026) with a mandatory pre-bid conference, requiring M/WBE participation with a 30% combined goal and flooring subcontractors holding minimum five years' certified installation experience. These opportunities signal steady district and county-level demand for both material supply and skilled labor-intensive installation work.
