NIGP 52013: Brushes, Shoe

NIGP Item 52013 Brushes, Shoe covers shoe-cleaning and maintenance brushes that state and local governments procure for facilities management, custodial operations, and public-area maintenance. The scope includes hand-held and floor-mounted brush designs used to remove dirt, debris, and scuff marks from footwear and flooring at entry points, transit stations, administrative buildings, and similar venues. State and local jurisdictions—primarily facilities departments within state agencies, counties, municipalities, and school districts—source these items through standard purchasing channels to support daily housekeeping and grounds-care operations.

No recent state and local contract opportunities appear in the active procurement record for this Item code. Shoe brushes typically move through routine consumables procurement rather than formal solicitation, suggesting activity is distributed across small purchases, blanket orders, and cooperative purchasing agreements rather than concentrated in posted RFPs or RFQs.
