NIGP 45060: Oilers, Hand

NIGP 45060 Oilers, Hand, an Item code, encompasses hand-held oiling devices and lubricating applicators that state and local governments procure as part of broader equipment maintenance and law enforcement supply chains. The code sees activity primarily through cooperative purchasing vehicles and multi-jurisdictional procurements rather than single-agency buys, with oilers typically bundled into larger equipment solicitations serving counties, municipalities, and special-purpose districts across multiple states.

Sourcewell, a State of Minnesota local government unit and service cooperative, issued RFP #061626 on May 12, 2026 to establish a contracting solution for law enforcement equipment with a response deadline of June 16, 2026. The solicitation encompasses participation from Franklin County, Grant County, Grays Harbor County, Chelan County, and Yakima County in Washington, along with numerous other jurisdictions and public entities throughout the United States and Canada, making the resulting contract available to governmental agencies, higher education institutions, K-12 school districts, nonprofit organizations, and tribal governments. Vendors must submit proposals through the Sourcewell Procurement Portal; no set-aside designations or specific budget ranges are identified in the available documentation. Hand oilers under this code appear in state and local procurement primarily as line items within equipment categories rather than as standalone solicitations, reflecting their role as ancillary maintenance supplies in larger law enforcement and facilities-management buys.
