NIGP 52056: Needles and Awls, Shoe Machine

NIGP 52056 Needles And Awls, Shoe Machine is an Item code representing specialized fastening and piercing tools used in footwear manufacturing and repair operations procured by state and local governments. State and local buyers source needles, awls, and related implements designed for use in shoe machinery—equipment that requires precision tooling for stitching, lasting, and finishing work in both industrial and artisanal footwear production. The code captures both replacement consumables for existing shoe-manufacturing infrastructure and standalone hand tools for shoe repair and cobbling operations. Issuing bodies for this code typically include vocational and technical schools maintaining shoe-repair training programs, correctional facilities operating prison industries programs, parks and recreation departments supporting craft workshops, and occasionally municipalities purchasing supplies for public works or facilities-maintenance cobbling services.

No recent state and local contract opportunities under NIGP 52056 appear in the available procurement records.
