NIGP 67082: Valves, Steel: Angle, Check, Gate, Globe, etc.

NIGP 67082 Valves, Steel: Angle, Check, Gate, Globe, Etc., an Item code, covers resilient wedge gate valves, check valves, slide gates, butterfly valves, and specialized insertion valves that state and local governments procure for water treatment plants, wastewater systems, water distribution networks, and infrastructure replacement projects. Recent solicitations show municipalities and county utilities buying replacement check valves for pump stations, resilient gate valves for water mains and filter plants, butterfly valves for treatment facilities, and large-diameter slide gates for storage systems. Water utilities dominate the issuing-body mix—Gwinnett County, Tampa, Madison, Sioux Falls, and Seminole County have each posted multiple opportunities in the past six months—alongside regional water authorities such as Tampa Bay Water and Ashley Valley Water & Sewer Improvement District, Florida Department of Transportation District Four for fuel storage tank valves, and county-level transportation and facilities departments. Geographic spread concentrates in Georgia (Gwinnett County water procurement), Florida (Tampa, Seminole County, FDOT District Four), and the upper Midwest and Mountain West (Wisconsin, South Dakota, Utah, Arizona), with secondary activity in Pennsylvania and Washington.

Representative recent opportunities include Gwinnett County's competitive sealed bid for nineteen replacement swing check valves for the F. Wayne Hill Water Resources Center (due April 24, 2026), soliciting approved manufacturers such as DeZurik/APCO, Pratt, Crispin, and Val-matic across multiple sizes and configurations; the City of Tampa Water Department's RFQ for Kennedy Check Valve and Kennedy Swing Check Valve replacement parts (due May 28–29, 2026), requesting specific hinges, discs, bolts, and gaskets for maintenance; the City of Sioux Falls' ITB for a single 12-inch plunger valve assembly with electric actuator for the South Reservoir Fill Valve project (due May 21, 2026), specifying Erhard, VAG RIKO, or Henry Pratt valve bodies with AUMA or Rotork actuators; and Tampa Bay Water's sole-source Notice of Intent to procure Flowserve Limitorque actuators and replacement parts from Valve & Actuation Services dba Chalmers & Kubeck South (objections due July 30, 2026). Sole-source and equipment-specific procurements appear frequently, reflecting capital-asset-replacement cycles and established supplier relationships in water infrastructure.
