NIGP 42514: Credenza Unit, Wood

NIGP 42514 Credenza Unit, Wood is an Item code under which state and local governments procure office furnishings and related installation services as part of broader building fit-outs and workspace modernization projects. Based on recent solicitation activity, the actual purchasing under this code encompasses modular office systems, desks, workstations, and related furnishings bundled with design, delivery, and installation labor—often as components of larger facility renovation or equipping efforts rather than as standalone credenza purchases. Issuing bodies include state agencies (notably the Texas General Land Office) and county government procurement offices, with furniture specifications typically tied to established manufacturers such as Steelcase. Respondents must demonstrate multi-year experience in office furnishings installation, maintain active federal registration, carry substantial commercial general liability and workers' compensation insurance, and often accept mandatory subcontracting requirements favoring certified veteran-owned or minority-owned enterprises.

The most recent representative opportunity is the Texas General Land Office's RFP 8399-SJ, posted July 13, 2026, with proposals due August 12, 2026, for furnishings supply and installation across five suites in the Stephen F. Austin Building in Austin, requiring mandatory Steelcase product compliance, five years of documented installation experience, and a Subcontracting Plan with good-faith efforts to engage State of Texas certified Veteran-Owned Historically Underutilized Businesses. The contract runs through August 31, 2027, with potential extension to five years, and evaluation weights 40 percent cost, 30 percent experience and past performance, 25 percent methodology and schedule, and 5 percent responsiveness. A mandatory pre-proposal conference and site tour is scheduled for July 21, 2026, at 1:00 p.m. CT. Recent activity under this code is concentrated in Texas, with state-level procurement offices driving the visible market. Award-winning vendors typically carry $1 million to $2 million in commercial general liability coverage and demonstrate established relationships with major office systems manufacturers.
