NIGP 50097: Water Recovery System, Laundry

NIGP 50097 Water Recovery System, Laundry is an Item code for equipment and systems that capture, treat, and recycle wastewater from laundry operations for reuse. State and local governments procure this code primarily through capital-equipment solicitations for facility upgrades at correctional institutions, hospitals, universities, military installations, and large municipal laundry facilities seeking to reduce water consumption and operating costs. The work spans design, procurement, installation, and integration of water recovery hardware — including wash-water filtration, treatment modules, and distribution systems — into existing or planned laundry infrastructure. Issuing bodies include state departments of corrections, higher-education systems, state and county health systems, municipal public works departments, and specialized facilities management authorities.

No recent state and local contract opportunities appear in the current sourcing activity for NIGP 50097. This code segment reflects capital-project and infrastructure-management procurement rather than routine commodity or service contracting, and solicitation frequency varies significantly by jurisdiction based on facility-renewal cycles and water-conservation priorities. Firms pursuing work in water-recovery and laundry-system modernization should monitor state procurement portals and facility capital-plan announcements from institutions with large-scale laundry operations, particularly in water-stressed regions and states with mandatory water-conservation mandates for public agencies.
