NIGP 67554: Pesticides

NIGP 67554 Pesticides is an Item code under which state and local governments procure ready-to-use and concentrated pesticide products—including herbicides, insecticides, rodenticides, fungicides, and specialized formulations such as mosquito control chemicals, termiticides, and aquatic herbicides—for application across facilities, grounds, and vector-control operations. The recent opportunities span school districts, counties, cities, and state agencies, with purchases ranging from small spot-chemical buys to large statewide contract vehicles. San Antonio Independent School District has posted multiple continuous, open-ended RFPs for general maintenance services that include pest control as one trade category; the City of Dallas and Brazoria County, Texas are actively soliciting mosquito control chemicals and pesticides through ITBs; and the Washington State Department of Enterprise Services is establishing a statewide vegetation-management contract vehicle that includes liquid and dry herbicides, aquatic products, and ornamental compounds. The mix of issuing bodies reflects broad geographic and operational spread: school districts (Parkway School District in Missouri, San Antonio ISD in Texas, Valencia College in Florida), county governments (Brazoria, Gwinnett, Hillsborough, Clay, Volusia, Polk in multiple states), state departments and universities (Washington Department of Enterprise Services, Georgia Department of Corrections, Columbus State University), and municipalities (Dallas, Tempe, Ocala). Large county and city pest-control contracts typically bundle multiple service locations and pest categories—general insects, rodents, termites, bed bugs, stinging insects, and mosquitoes—under single awards.

Representative recent opportunities include the City of Dallas ITB for mosquito control chemicals (due July 22, 2026) and a three-year Indefinite Delivery/Indefinite Quantity agreement for agricultural pesticides and herbicides (due July 24, 2026); the Washington State Department of Enterprise Services RFP for vegetation-management products covering liquid and dry herbicides, aquatic herbicides, adjuvants, and surfactants (due August 20, 2026), with historical annual spending ranging from $914,419 to $3.87 million and a four-year cumulative spend of approximately $7.77 million split among state agencies (45.33%), counties (45.11%), and special districts (9.64%); Brazoria County's ITB for mosquito control chemicals with estimated annual costs including $245,995.00 for Malathion and $177,372.00 for Naled (due May 27, 2026); and Volusia County's ITB for comprehensive pest control services across 150 to 180 facilities under a three-year term with two optional renewals (due July 2, 2026, local preference up to 5 percent). Activity concentrates in Texas (Dallas, Brazoria, San Antonio), Florida (Volusia, Polk, Clay, Pinellas, Hillsborough), Georgia (Gwinnett, DeKalb, Columbus State University), and Washington, with secondary activity across the Southeast and Midwest. Contracts typically require EPA registration, state pesticide-dealer licenses where applicable, proof of applicator certification, comprehensive liability insurance, and compliance with state environmental and health regulations; procurement vehicles range from single-award blanket purchase agreements to multi-vendor statewide schedules with reserved awards for certified small businesses and veteran-owned enterprises.
