NIGP 65984: Tees, Steel

NIGP 65984 Tees, Steel is an Item code that captures steel tees and related pipe-fitting components used in construction, infrastructure repair, and facilities maintenance projects pursued by state and local governments. State and local purchasers under this code acquire steel tees as part of broader sewer infrastructure rehabilitation, water distribution system upgrades, and industrial piping projects. Issuing bodies soliciting under the code include county sanitation districts, county public works departments, and independent school districts, with recent activity concentrated in California jurisdictions. The scope of work reflects demand for replacement fittings, service connection tees, and mainline pipe tees in municipal sewer and water systems.

Santa Clara County Sanitation District No. 2-3 issued an ITB (ITBRDAFY270088) on August 26, 2026, for the Structural Defect Repair Project Phase 2, with proposals due September 17, 2026, that included removal and replacement of service connection fittings comprising twenty-seven 4"×6" wyes, two 4"×8" wyes, and two 4"×10" wyes as part of a sewer mainline rehabilitation program in the unincorporated eastern foothills. Santa Clara County also solicited bids for the Central Expressway Pavement Rehabilitation Project (ITBRDAFY260694) on April 29, 2026, with a May 21, 2026 response deadline, encompassing infrastructure improvements across a specified corridor. Northside Independent School District (NISD) posted an IFB (IFB2026137) on October 1, 2026, consolidating four expiring athletic equipment and supplies contracts, with bids due October 19, 2026, though this opportunity focuses on athletic equipment rather than steel pipe fittings. Recent activity is concentrated in California, with no reported opportunities in other states during the source period.
