NIGP 63067: Paint Sticks, Annealing

NIGP 63067 Paint Sticks, Annealing is an Item code with minimal direct relevance to state and local procurement as currently practiced. The recent opportunities block contains no solicitations for paint sticks or annealing materials per se. Instead, the available records show two major painting-services projects — exterior and interior commercial painting — that would consume paint and related materials as components of broader facility maintenance and renovation work, but neither opportunity names paint sticks as a line-item procurement or explicitly solicits annealing services. State and local governments soliciting under painting-related codes appear to contract primarily for labor-intensive services (surface preparation, application, caulking, gutter and soffit work, cleanup) rather than for commodity paint supplies in isolation. The issuing bodies pursuing painting work include municipal authorities (the Community Development Authority of the City of Madison, Wisconsin) and county governments (Orange County, Florida), indicating that facility maintenance and capital improvement projects drive most procurement activity in this general space.

Geographic activity in recent painting-services opportunities centers on Wisconsin and Florida, though the source does not support a characterization of national spread. Representative recent opportunities include the Karabis Apartments Painting and Siding Project, issued by Madison's Community Development Authority under RFB #15051-0-2026-AH with bids due July 17, 2026, and Orange County, Florida's Commercial Interior & Exterior Painting Services for Facilities Management (Y26-1008), with responses due July 7, 2026, submitted electronically via OpenGov. The Madison bid encompasses exterior painting alongside guttering, soffit, and fascia work under Davis-Bacon wage requirements; the Orange County opportunity covers multiple facilities across county and city properties. Neither solicitation isolates paint sticks or annealing as a distinct procurement line, suggesting the code may see limited direct state and local activity or that purchases occur as part of broader materials bundling in facility-services contracts.
