NIGP 45016: Casters, All Types

NIGP 45016 Casters, All Types is an Item code that, based on recent state and local solicitations, appears primarily to support seating and furniture procurements rather than discrete caster components. The District of Columbia has posted multiple conference room chair and replacement chair solicitations under this code since February 2026, indicating that state and local buyers are using the code to solicit complete seating solutions. Issuing bodies include municipal governments (District of Columbia) and cooperative purchasing vehicles (Sourcewell, the Minnesota local government service cooperative). The Sourcewell Law Enforcement Equipment RFP issued on behalf of multiple Washington State counties and participating entities nationwide suggests the code may also encompass specialized equipment categories beyond standard furniture casters.

Recent opportunities cluster in the District of Columbia and the Pacific Northwest. The District of Columbia posted FY26 Conference Room Chairs (Solicitation DOC835941, due July 3, 2026) and multiple iterations of FY26 Replacement Chairs for THOR (Solicitation DOC814011, due February 23, 2026; DOC814716, due February 18, 2026; DOC815755, due March 2, 2026). Sourcewell issued Law Enforcement Equipment RFP #061626 on May 12, 2026 with a June 16, 2026 response deadline, establishing a cooperative purchasing vehicle available to thousands of governmental agencies, higher education institutions, school districts, and nonprofits across the United States and Canada.
