NIGP 40533: Naphtha

NIGP 40533 Naphtha is an Item code representing the purchase and delivery of refined petroleum products — specifically ultralow sulfur diesel and gasoline — for fleet fueling infrastructure at state and local government facilities. School districts dominate recent solicitation activity under this code, buying fuel to supply distributed fueling networks across their transportation and operations fleets. The work consists of competitive procurements for fuel supply contracts structured around commodity-indexed pricing (typically NYMEX futures-based markup formulas), with vendors required to deliver to multiple storage sites, meet EPA compliance and sulfur-content specifications, maintain 24-hour ordering and rapid delivery windows, and assume liability and regulatory compliance responsibilities.

School districts in Florida and Georgia have posted recent opportunities under this code. Hillsborough County Public Schools issued ITB 26205-ITB-DST in August 2026 for approximately 1.75 million gallons annually of ultralow sulfur diesel at an estimated annual contract value of $5.5 million, with a June 30 response deadline and nine competitive bids received; the contract renews for up to four additional one-year periods and requires vendors to maintain three years' prior fuel-supply experience, proper licensing, insurance rated A- or better by AM BEST, and 24/7 technical support including hurricane-response prioritization. Cobb County School District posted RFP P27050 on September 1, 2026, soliciting gasoline and diesel fuel delivery to multiple CCSD fuel pumps with a September 30 response deadline. Both opportunities reflect standard school-district procurement patterns: multi-year renewable terms, fixed-cost or indexed-price structures, compliance with EPA emissions rules, and vendor requirements for proof of experience and insurance.
