NIGP 62517: Cleaners and Wipes, Eye Glass

NIGP 62517 Cleaners and Wipes, Eye Glass is an Item code that encompasses cleaning products and materials specifically formulated for eyeglass and optical lens care. State and local governments procure these products through janitorial and general supplies contracts that bundle optical cleaners with broader cleaning-product purchases, as evidenced by recent solicitations mixing eyeglass-cleaning supplies with paper products, food-service disposables, and general custodial materials. Issuing bodies include county governments, municipalities, and school districts. The Bridgeport Board of Education and Harris County have posted recent opportunities that reference or encompass optical and cleaning supplies within larger commodity purchases. The scope extends beyond standalone optical cleaners to integrated procurement of janitorial chemicals, disinfectants, and paper products bundled into single contracts that serve multiple facilities across a jurisdiction.

Recent activity shows sparse direct solicitation under this specific code. The City of Bridgeport, Connecticut Department of Public Purchases issued an IFB (Solicitation BNB051266, due June 30, 2026) for paper and cleaning products to supply the Bridgeport Board of Education across approximately 35 school sites, covering 193 line items including janitorial supplies and disinfectants alongside food-service disposables; the contract runs one year with Net 45 payment terms and requires Buy American compliance. Harris County issued an RFO (Solicitation KJ09102026, due October 2, 2026) for optical retail and dispensing services, which would encompass related optical-cleaning supplies within broader dispensing operations, though the scope details remain limited in available documentation. Sourcewell, on behalf of Washington state counties and participating entities, issued an RFP (#061626, due June 16, 2026) for law enforcement equipment that may indirectly include cleaning supplies for equipment maintenance. Activity appears concentrated in the Northeast and Upper Midwest, with recent posted opportunities in Connecticut and Washington state as well as Harris County, Texas.
