NIGP 440: Glass and Glazing Supplies

NIGP 440 Glass and Glazing Supplies is a Class code encompassing window and glazing materials, hardware, and related repair and replacement services that state and local governments procure for facility maintenance, infrastructure upgrades, and capital projects. Recent solicitations show demand spanning replacement window systems for historic and multi-family properties, glazing materials for transit and municipal facilities, and comprehensive window and door hardware for correctional and operational campuses. The code serves a broad mix of issuing bodies, including cities (Pasadena, Palo Alto, Meriden, Milpitas, Phoenix, Lompoc, New London), counties (Orange, San Mateo, Solano), school districts, transit authorities (Jacksonville Transportation Authority), and special-purpose districts (water authorities). Work ranges from large capital projects requiring design-build or construction management oversight to routine facilities maintenance, often bundled with broader MRO or trade-services contracts rather than solicited standalone.

Activity concentrates in California (Pasadena, Palo Alto, San Mateo, Milpitas, Lompoc) and Florida (Orange County), with secondary presence in Connecticut and Arizona. Representative recent opportunities include the City of Pasadena's in-kind window replacement at the historic La Pintoresca Library (58 windows, Sapele Mahogany sashes, Invitation for Bids, October 2025 due date), the City of Phoenix Housing Department's multi-family window replacement RFP requiring aluminum systems and historic preservation compliance (May 2026 response deadline), and the City of Milpitas' five-year blanket purchase order for MRO supplies and facilities maintenance materials including glazing components (IFB 26-229, August 2026 response deadline). Orange County, Florida has issued multiple sealed-bid procurements involving door and lock replacements at correctional facilities and generator installations requiring comprehensive electrical and structural work. West Basin Municipal Water District's rain barrel procurement and the City of New London's lead service line replacement program, while not glazing-specific, illustrate the code's intersection with broader infrastructure and environmental remediation work. Prevailing wage requirements, local vendor preferences, and California Assembly Bill 661 recycled-content compliance for janitorial paper products appear consistently in California solicitations.
