NIGP 53025: Back and Fanny Packs

NIGP 53025 Back And Fanny Packs, an Item code, covers bags and pack-style carryalls that state and local governments procure as part of broader athletic, outdoor, and operational supply chains. The scope of work extends beyond standalone back and fanny packs to include branded team wear and athletic apparel accessories sourced alongside uniforms and performance gear. State and local buying spans school districts, with Northside Independent School District (NISD) in Texas representing a substantial repeat buyer of multi-sport athletic uniforms and branded merchandise that incorporate or bundle packs and accessories. The code captures goods purchased through IFB and RFP channels on a contract basis, typically with annual or multi-year terms and options to renew.

Northside Independent School District in San Antonio, Texas issued IFB 2026-073 on April 14, 2026, for multi-sport athletic uniforms and branded team wear across ten sports, with a response deadline of May 14, 2026. The district specified deliverables including game uniforms, practice gear, warm-ups, compression wear, performance apparel, coaching attire, outerwear, headwear, socks, accessories, spirit wear, and branded merchandise from vendors including Nike, Under Armour, Mizuno, and Alleson. The contract carries a one-year initial term with options to renew for three additional one-year periods, serves 128 NISD locations across elementary, middle, high, and magnet schools, and operates on an as-needed ordering basis with FOB Destination delivery and standard net-30 payment terms. No minimum purchase volumes are guaranteed, and the district reserves the right to award to a single respondent, multiple suppliers, or on a line-item basis. This IFB replaces the district's prior athletic uniform contract (IFB 2023-117) expiring August 31, 2026, signaling ongoing procurement demand at this school system level.
