NIGP 46085: Suction and Discharge Hose and Fittings

NIGP 46085 Suction and Discharge Hose and Fittings, an Item code, covers hose pump parts, replacement components, and hose assemblies that state and local governments procure to maintain wastewater treatment, water reclamation, and departmental operational equipment. Recent solicitations show municipalities and county water authorities buying specific hose pump replacement parts for centrifugal and peristaltic pumps, standardized discharge hose assemblies in multiple diameters and lengths, and related fittings needed to sustain continuous service across water systems and municipal operations. Issuing bodies soliciting under this code include county departments of watershed management and city public works and water departments, typically procuring through IFB and RFQ mechanisms to replace worn or failed components and maintain inventory levels across multiple facilities.

Recent activity appears concentrated in Georgia and Florida. Fulton County Department of Watershed Management posted IFB/GS/DWM/2606-1260240 on July 19, 2026, requesting hose pump parts and replacement components for Watson-Marlow Bredel pumps across multiple Water Reclamation Centers, with bids due July 31, 2026; vendor registration on atlsuppliers.com is required. The City of Tampa, Hillsborough County, Florida, solicited Inventory Discharge Hoses under 26P00102, posted February 18, 2026, for four line items of cam-lock hose assemblies ranging from 4-inch to 6-inch diameters and 50-foot to 100-foot lengths, with a one-year contract term and the city reserving award discretion by division, line item, or aggregate; the solicitation was open to all vendors, though a certified Small Local Business Enterprise and Women/Minority Business Enterprise vendor in Lutz, Florida, was highlighted.
