NIGP 37075: Washing Machine, Fruit and Vegetable

NIGP 37075 Washing Machine, Fruit And Vegetable is an Item code that covers commercial-grade laundry equipment procurement and operations by state and local governments. Recent solicitations show this code captures both equipment sales and full-service laundry operations contracts, including installation, maintenance, emergency repair, revenue management, and occupancy-specific compliance. The Housing Authority of the City of Alameda and the State of Utah Department of Corrections represent the issuing-body mix — public housing authorities, state correctional facilities, and other institutional and residential entities seeking either capital equipment replacement or turnkey laundry service delivery. Scope spans equipment specifications (capacity, extraction force, electrical and water requirements), site-specific installation and integration, preventative and emergency maintenance with defined response times, and data reporting and payment reconciliation for revenue-sharing models. Compliance requirements include ADA accessibility, energy efficiency standards (ENERGY STAR preference), building code adherence, labor law and safety standards, and background-check protocols for personnel accessing secure facilities.

Geographic activity in the most recent cycle reflects the West and Mountain regions, with postings from California (Alameda Housing Authority, July 2026) and Utah (Department of Corrections, May 2026). The Alameda Housing Authority RFP, due August 1, 2026, solicits leased commercial-grade washers and dryers (28 and 33 units respectively) with mobile app payment and full operations support across six multi-family properties, accepting fixed monthly lease, revenue-sharing, or hybrid pricing models. The State of Utah Department of Corrections IFB, due June 1, 2026, procures two large-capacity 160-pound washing machines (approximately $83,000 budget) with removal of legacy equipment, installation, and delivery to the Central Utah Correctional Facility in Gunnison, Utah, requiring completion by June 30, 2026. Both opportunities reflect institutional demand for equipment that integrates payment technology, accessibility compliance, and vendor-managed operations or rapid turnaround on capital replacement.
