NIGP 440: Glass and Glazing Supplies

NIGP 440 Glass and Glazing Supplies, a Class code, encompasses commercial window systems, glazing materials, and specialized glass products that state and local governments procure for facility renovation, maintenance, and replacement work. Recent state and local solicitations show demand for suspended acoustical ceiling systems with integrated glass components, window replacement services using factory-finished systems, shatterproof safety glazing films, and furnish-and-install contracts for replacement windows at municipal facilities. The code rolls up purchasing activity from cities, counties, and special-purpose water districts conducting building modernization and public facility upgrades.

Cities and counties dominate recent issuance activity under this code. Walton County, Florida issued an ITQ on October 8, 2026, for furnish-and-install of a 2-foot by 2-foot suspended acoustical ceiling system at a county office building, with phased work to maintain operability and separate pricing for labor, materials, and per-square-foot costs. The City of Kingman, Arizona posted an IFB on October 1, 2026, for window replacement at the Powerhouse Visitors Center, specifying nine Marvin wood windows with factory-applied aluminum exterior cladding and completion by January 31, 2027. The City of Milpitas, California solicited bids in September 2026 for shatterproof window film and installation services supporting a Storefront Crime Prevention program, with a $100,000 appropriation and unit pricing on a per-square-foot and per-linear-foot basis. The City of Tucson issued an RFP in August 2026 for window glass furnishing and installation to support residential rehabilitation and commercial building maintenance, with HUD funding and Section 3 labor-hour requirements. Activity concentrates in California, Florida, and Arizona, with additional recent solicitations in Connecticut and other states. The code sees steady activity driven by aging municipal infrastructure, code compliance requirements including safety glazing standards, and renovation cycles across government facilities.
