NIGP 63012: Coatings, Protective, Asphalt Based (Also See Class 770-26)

NIGP 63012 Coatings, Protective, Asphalt Based is an Item code under which state and local governments procure asphalt milling, overlay, resurfacing, and preservation services—together with hot mix asphalt supply and specialized surface treatments such as chip seal, micro-surfacing, and crack sealing—for roadway rehabilitation and maintenance across county, municipal, and special-purpose district networks. The work solicited ranges from discrete projects (Orange County, Florida's $125.6 million asphalt milling and resurfacing with friction course across 25,000 to 275,000 square yards) to annual supply contracts (Greenville, Texas ordering 5,000 tons of hot mix asphalt annually) to standing task-order vehicles (Okaloosa County's federally funded road preservation program accepting multiple preservation treatments on a unit-price basis). Issuing bodies include city public works departments, county boards of commissioners, special districts (Eastern Municipal Water District in California), school districts (Pinellas County Schools resurfacing, resealing, and restriping countywide), and state transportation agencies (Caltrans). Recent solicitations employ RFP, RFQ, IFB, and ITB notice types, with response dates clustering in May and June 2026; representative opportunities include the City of Waxahachie's RFP for asphalt milling and overlay under an IDIQ contract (due August 13, 2026, anticipated funding $500,000–$1,000,000 annually), the City of Fort Myers' ITB for mill and replace asphalt resurfacing across multiple street packages (due August 17, 2026, with full completion in four months), and the City of Tallahassee's IFB for pavement preservation services using chip seal, cape seal, micro-surfacing, and crack sealing on a countywide as-needed basis (due March 19, 2026, three-year contract with two optional one-year extensions).

Geographic activity spans Florida (Orange County, Pinellas County, Fort Myers, Tallahassee, Okaloosa County), Texas (Waxahachie, Greenville, Bastrop County), Georgia (White County, Fairburn, Cobb County, Middle Georgia State University), California (Eastern Municipal Water District, Caltrans), and Oregon (Bend), with additional activity in Kentucky, Wisconsin, and other jurisdictions. The code shows sustained procurement momentum through mid-2026, with particular concentration in Florida's municipal and county systems and Texas cities. Contractors routinely furnish performance and payment bonds (100 percent of contract value when contract amounts exceed $25,000–$100,000 thresholds), maintain commercial general liability of $1,000,000–$2,000,000 per occurrence, comply with prevailing wage when federally funded, and operate under unit-price or lump-sum pricing structures. Many solicitations require local prequalification, equipment ownership on-site at bid time, three to five years of prior operating history under the current company name, and attendance at mandatory pre-bid conferences; evaluation emphasizes cost (often 70 percent of scoring), experience and qualifications, and references. Set-asides and preferences vary—some jurisdictions encourage HUB, MWBE, VOSB, and SBE participation through cooperative vehicles like the Purchasing Cooperative of America, while others apply local-vendor affidavits and location preferences for a fixed office in the region.
