NIGP 56510: Box Spring Units

NIGP 56510 Box Spring Units, an Item code, covers wooden and metal box spring products that state and local governments procure for residential and institutional bedding applications. The scope includes box springs fabricated to specification with fire-retardant materials, matching mattress and bed-frame systems, and delivered under warranty with replacement obligations for defective units. Issuing bodies soliciting under this code include county governments and their constituent departments; the Hillsborough County Board of County Commissioners has recently procured box springs as part of integrated bedding packages for public safety facilities.

Hillsborough County, Florida, represents the documented recent activity under this code. The County issued an Invitation to Quote (ITQ) in February 2026 for mattresses, box springs, and bed frames to outfit fire stations on an ongoing, as-needed basis under a two-year contract, with a response deadline of March 6, 2026. The County specified wooden box springs measuring 79 inches by 38 inches by 7 inches, new first-quality products meeting CertiPUR-US, UL, and CPSC standards, with delivery to the Public Safety Operations Center in Tampa, Florida within 30 calendar days of purchase order receipt. The estimated project value was $21,864.96, with award made to the lowest responsive and responsible bidder; no set-asides, site visits, or pre-bid meetings were scheduled.
