NIGP 48513: Cleaner, Hand and Skin, Synthetic Detergent Type (see 435-68, 70 for Skin Cleaners for Health Care Personnel

NIGP 48513 Cleaner, Hand and Skin, Synthetic Detergent Type (Item) covers consumable cleaning and skin-care products in the synthetic-detergent category that state and local governments procure for facility maintenance and personnel use. In practice, state and local buyers under this Item code are acquiring custodial supplies — trash bags, floor sealants and finishes, detergents, disinfectants, cleaning chemicals, foam hand soap with dispensers, hand sanitizer with dispensers, rags, carpet shampoo, mops, mop buckets, dust mops, brooms, brushes, and paper products — for distribution across multiple facilities. School districts dominate the issuing-body mix, with Cobb County School District (Georgia), Northside Independent School District (Texas), and Madison County Board of Education (Georgia) among recent solicitors. These districts manage hundreds of thousands of square feet across multiple campuses and treat custodial-supply procurement as ongoing, recurring contract activity with annual renewal options.

Recent opportunities show concentrated activity in the Southeast, particularly Georgia and Texas. Cobb County School District issued IFB B27046 for custodial equipment with a response date of September 23, 2026, and an estimated contract value of $550,000 over the term. Northside Independent School District posted RFP 2026-071 for custodial supplies with a June 4, 2026 deadline, replacing an expiring contract and conditioning vendor continuation on new-RFP participation. Madison County Board of Education solicited RFP CSUP 05-26 with a June 2, 2026 deadline for supplies supporting eight school facilities across 787,296 square feet, requiring firm pricing for 12 months and general liability insurance of $500,000 per occurrence. District procurement typically weights contractor qualifications, relevant experience, financial responsibility, and references alongside cost, and requires proof of E-Verify compliance and insurance documentation.
