NIGP 54035: Lumber, Southern Pine, Laminated Structural Type

NIGP 54035 Lumber, Southern Pine, Laminated Structural Type is an Item code under which state and local governments procure pressure-treated southern pine lumber for municipal infrastructure projects, repairs, and capital construction. The City of Austin's recent IFQ 6200 AJC1021, posted April 16, 2026 with an April 20 response deadline, exemplifies the scope: the city sought 515 units of pressure-treated southern yellow pine (SYP) sized 3 inches by 8 inches by 12 feet, surfaced to specification, for transportation and public works projects. Issuing bodies span cities, counties, and cooperative purchasing vehicles. Sourcewell, a Minnesota state local government unit and service cooperative, posted RFP #061626 on May 12, 2026 (due June 16, 2026) to establish a statewide contracting solution for law enforcement equipment available to thousands of public entities across the United States and Canada, including participation from Franklin County, Grant County, Grays Harbor County, Chelan County, and Yakima County in Washington state. The cooperative structure allows multiple jurisdictions to leverage collective buying power under a single framework agreement.

Recent activity concentrates in Texas and Washington state. The City of Austin procurement required 30-day delivery to its Transportation and Public Works Department; quotations were directed first to certified HUBS and M/WBE vendors through state and city channels before broader posting, reflecting Austin's disadvantaged-enterprise preference. Vendors must be authorized dealers or resellers, provide samples within ten working days at no cost if requested, and maintain key personnel consistency throughout the contract term. Payment is made within thirty days of properly documented invoices on an FOB Destination basis with all freight charges included in pricing, and the City is exempt from federal and state taxes. No specific budget or award value is disclosed in either solicitation.
