NIGP 48664: Janitor Carts and Bags, Environmentally Certified Products

NIGP 48664 Janitor Carts And Bags, Environmentally Certified Products is an Item code describing the supply of janitorial carts, bags, and related consumable products to state and local government facilities. In practice, state and local governments procure janitorial supplies and services under this code through a mix of standalone supply contracts and bundled janitorial-services agreements where equipment and materials are either provided by the contractor or by the issuing body. Recent solicitations show school districts, transportation departments, water authorities, and special-purpose districts purchasing custodial supplies, with the scope spanning cleaning equipment, trash and recycling containers, sanitizing materials, and related consumables necessary for routine facility maintenance. Issuing bodies range from large independent school districts managing district-wide supply chains to state transportation departments and regional water authorities managing multi-facility operations. The code sees activity from California state agencies, Texas school districts, and Southern California special districts, indicating dispersed but recurring demand across multiple jurisdictions and issuing-body types.

Representative recent opportunities include Northside Independent School District (NISD) in San Antonio, Texas issuing RFP 2026-071 on May 13, 2026, for custodial supplies with a June 4, 2026 response date, replacing an expiring contract and requiring all vendors to submit proposals to maintain business continuity; the California Department of Transportation (Caltrans) posting IFB 04A7589 on September 4, 2026, for janitorial services at its District 4 office in Oakland covering labor, tools, equipment, and incidentals with bids due September 24, 2026, under a three-year term beginning February 15, 2027; and the Water Replenishment District of Southern California issuing RFP-26-004 on May 6, 2026, seeking janitorial services across six Los Angeles County facilities totaling 111,018 square feet with proposals due May 26, 2026, and contract terms ranging from one to three years. Activity concentrates in California and Texas, with opportunities spanning supply procurement, full-service janitorial contracts where the issuing body supplies consumables, and integrated arrangements where contractors furnish materials and equipment.
