NIGP 42093: Stools, Household

NIGP 42093 Stools, Household is an Item code covering seating and storage products state and local governments buy for operational, recreational, and administrative use. Recent solicitations show state and local bodies procuring household and recreational seating through broader commodity bundles — notably through cooperative purchasing agreements that bundle stools with related equipment categories to streamline multi-jurisdictional procurement and leverage collective buying power across dozens or hundreds of public entities at once.

State and local issuing bodies soliciting under this code span county governments, city consolidated governments, parks and recreation departments, and cooperative purchasing vehicles like Sourcewell that aggregate demand across multiple jurisdictions. Sourcewell, a Minnesota local government unit and service cooperative, posted RFP #061626 on May 12, 2026 (due June 16, 2026) to establish a law enforcement equipment contracting solution available to thousands of governmental agencies, school districts, tribal governments, and nonprofit organizations throughout the United States and Canada, including participating jurisdictions in Washington state (Franklin, Grant, Grays Harbor, Chelan, and Yakima counties). Columbus Consolidated Government in Georgia issued RFB No. 26-0014 on February 4, 2026 (due February 25, 2026) seeking arts and craft, hobby, and recreational supplies for its Department of Parks and Recreation with estimated annual spend of $30,000 to $50,000 across multiple divisions. The cooperative purchasing approach dominates recent activity, with vendors required to maintain adequate warehouse stock and meet ten-day shipping timelines to support as-needed ordering across distributed public entities.
