NIGP 55045: Sheeting, Reflectorized (General) (see 801-49 for Reflective Sign Material)

NIGP 55045 Sheeting, Reflectorized (General), an Item code, covers reflective sheeting materials applied to aluminum sign blanks and pre-fabricated sign faces for roadway, waterway, and municipal signage. State and local governments procure reflectorized sheeting as a commodity input to sign fabrication and maintenance operations, typically bundled with labor and delivery services or supplied as part of broader sign material and hardware agreements. Issuing bodies include counties, cities, and municipal departments responsible for traffic control, street signage, and wayfinding infrastructure. Collin County, Texas, Pinellas County, Florida, Union City (Georgia), the City of Temple (Texas), Mason County (Texas), and Santa Clara County (California) have posted recent opportunities under this code or closely related sign material categories. The work spans reflective material compliance with MUTCD and state transportation department standards, supply of sheeting materials affixed to blanks, and on-demand fulfillment to meet traffic control and municipal signage needs.

Geographic activity concentrates in Texas, Florida, and California, with secondary postings in Georgia and multi-state involvement through cooperative purchasing and interlocal agreements. Representative recent opportunities include Collin County's IFB #2026-303 for signs, sign materials, and hardware (due July 16, 2026, estimated annual value $160,000), Pinellas County, Florida's ITQ for sign fabrication services requiring supply and fabrication of reflective sheeting affixed to aluminum blanks with MUTCD and FDOT Standard Specifications compliance (proposals due July 9, 2026), the City of Temple's ITB for sign and traffic control supplies (due July 23, 2026, estimated annual value $50,000), Union City, Georgia's RFB-PS-26-03 for street sign replacement (due August 7, 2026), and Mason County, Texas's Phase 1 wayfinding signs project (due June 4, 2026). Contracts typically carry one-year terms with optional renewals, price redetermination or PPI adjustment provisions, and 30-day delivery requirements. Vendors must meet recycled material content disclosure and insurance requirements; many jurisdictions reserve the right to award by line item or make multiple awards.
