NIGP 56055: Tow, Battery Powered

NIGP 56055 Tow, Battery Powered is an Item code under which state and local governments procure specialized transport and material-handling equipment. Based on recent solicitations, the code captures purchases of dry freight van bodies and associated cargo-control systems for fleet and warehouse logistics operations. The Salt Lake City School District issued an Invitation for Bid in February 2026 for a single dry box for warehouse chassis, specifying a 16-foot Morgan brand body with laminated hardwood flooring, galvanized steel threshold, Whiting premium plate overhead rear door, Maxon lift gate with aluminum construction, 360-degree HD camera system with four wide-angle cameras, interior LED lighting with cab-mounted controls, E-track cargo control at multiple heights, folding steps with grab handles, water-based undercoating, galvanized scuff guards, and translucent glassboard roofing. School districts appear to be the primary issuing body under this code based on available activity.

The Salt Lake City School District posted the IFB (WK2647DB / WK2647DBDRYBOXFORWAREHOUSECHASSIS) on February 13, 2026, with bids due March 6, 2026, through the Bonfire/U3P electronic bidding platform. All questions must be submitted in writing through the platform, and vendors must certify non-debarment status and provide a Utah sales tax license number. Contractors must warrant goods for one year, deliver on an F.O.B. destination basis within five days of purchase order receipt, and repair, replace, or refund nonconforming goods within ten days of written notification. The District reserves the right to conduct site visits, request best and final offers, and audit vendor records and manufacturing facilities during the contract term. No specific award value or budget is disclosed, and no incumbent vendors are identified in the solicitation documents. Recent procurement activity under this code appears limited to the Utah jurisdiction, with no additional state or local opportunities visible in the current record.
