NIGP 57008: Bolt and Stud Stock, Steel

NIGP 57008 Bolt and Stud Stock, Steel is an Item code that describes fastener inventory state and local governments procure for maintenance, repair, and construction operations. The source records show that state and local issuing bodies use this code within broader categories of shop supplies, facilities maintenance, and construction material procurement — the fasteners themselves are typically bundled within larger blanket purchase orders or capital projects rather than solicited as standalone commodity line items.

The two recent opportunities in the source reflect this pattern: the Dallas Area Rapid Transit Authority posted a blanket purchase order for tire and shop supplies (REQ2099086, due June 25, 2026) that encompasses fasteners as component line items accessed through a Bonfire bidding portal, and the City of Lavonia, Georgia solicited sealed bids for a water treatment plant expansion project (PE66940NONST2026000000005, due May 26, 2026) where bolts, studs, and related fasteners are embedded within the larger construction materials scope. Transit authorities and municipal utilities represent the issuing-body mix evident here. Activity across the source locations spans Georgia and Texas, though the sample is too small to characterize broader geographic concentration. Fastener procurement under this code typically appears as a subordinate line item in transit maintenance agreements, municipal infrastructure projects, and facilities repair contracts rather than as primary solicitation focus.
