NIGP 42521: Desks and Tables, Wood

NIGP 42521 Desks and Tables, Wood is an Item code under which state and local governments procure office and institutional furniture components ranging from single-surface task desks to modular dispatch consoles and specialty seating configurations, typically as part of larger facility outfitting or renovation projects. Recent opportunities show a diverse set of work scopes: dispatch console systems with height-adjustable dual surfaces and integrated cable management (Oregon Department of Transportation); classroom and laboratory furniture packages including task chairs, collaborative tables, and storage solutions (Greene County School District, Georgia); office furniture suites of L-shaped desks, conference tables, and credenzas (Texas Office of the Attorney General, Texas Health and Human Services Commission); student housing residential and common-area furnishings (Texas School for the Deaf via Texas Facilities Commission); and outdoor recreation furniture including metal-slat seating and concrete gameboard tables (Orange County, California). Issuing bodies span state departments, county governments, city procurement offices, school districts, and special-purpose districts. State educational agencies and county school districts appear frequently as repeat buyers of classroom and multipurpose institutional furniture. State transportation, health, and human services departments solicit office and operational support furniture at moderate regularity.

Geographic activity concentrates in Texas (multiple HHSC, OAG, and TFC solicitations), California (Orange County municipal and regional park procurement), and scattered single opportunities in Oregon, Georgia, Florida, Pennsylvania, and Utah. Recent representative opportunities include the Oregon Department of Transportation RFCQ S-73000-00017851 for six height-adjustable dispatch consoles with partition-panel additive alternates, due October 8, 2026; Greene County School District's cooperative-purchasing procurement via TIPS Contract 200301 for classroom and greenhouse furnishings including 70 chairs, collaborative tables, and shelving from Nu-Idea School Supply, protest deadline September 14, 2026; the Texas Office of the Attorney General IFB 302-27-247268 for 107-piece office furniture suite (desks, chairs, tables, credenzas, workstations) with delivery and installation, due September 8, 2026; and the Texas Facilities Commission RFP 0010514 for five bid packages of residential bedroom, classroom, and security entrance furniture with mandatory VetHUB subcontracting plan compliance, due September 10, 2026. Micro-purchases and quick quotes account for smaller city and county procurements (Philadelphia; Sarasota County). Prevailing wage, insurance requirements, and performance bonding appear in mid-to-large-value awards; cooperative purchasing vehicles and set-aside preferences (VetHUB, OCLSB, DVBE, MBE/WBE/SBE) are standard across Texas and California solicitations.
