NIGP 74505: Asphalt, Aggregates

NIGP 74505 Asphalt, Aggregates is an Item code representing the supply of hot mix asphalt, aggregates, and related paving materials that state and local governments procure for roadway construction, maintenance, repair, and resurfacing projects. Recent solicitations show counties, cities, and special districts purchasing hot mix asphalt for annual requirements contracts (typically 5,000 to 20,000 tons), aggregate products (#5 granite, crusher fine, rip rap, recycled asphalt), liquid asphalt emulsions, and cold-mix materials. Issuing bodies span county road departments, city public works and streets divisions, school districts, forest preserve districts, transit and airport authorities, and state departments. The buyer mix is heavily county-based (Mississippi county boards of supervisors, Collin County Texas, Pinellas County Florida, Boulder County Colorado, Santa Clara County California, and others), with significant participation from cities (Arlington, Greenville, and Temple in Texas; Tampa, Tarpon Springs, and Pembroke Pines in Florida; Houston; Owensboro Kentucky; Palo Alto California) and special districts (Kane County Forest Preserve, Sanitation District No. 2-3 in Santa Clara County). Notable repeat activity centers on multi-year supply contracts and competitive annual requirements procurements.

Geographic activity is concentrated in Texas (Collin County, Hunt County, Temple, Arlington, Greenville, Waxahachie, and Houston), Florida (Pinellas County, Orange County, Marion County, Broward County, Tarpon Springs, Pembroke Pines, and Tampa), Mississippi (DeSoto, Hancock, Leake, Attala, and Lowndes counties), California (Santa Clara County, Boulder County Colorado, and Palo Alto), and Georgia (DeKalb, Walton, and Johns Creek). Representative recent opportunities include Walton County Board of Commissioners sealed bid for fine grading, base, and asphalt paving of 12 pickleball courts at Meridian Park (RFB2026-04, due November 12, 2026); City of Johns Creek streetscape improvements including asphalt pavement under ITB 27-314 (due November 10, 2026); Pinellas County sewer and water infrastructure projects with 10 percent SBE participation goal (two-step ITB with qualification due October 13 and final bids due November 5, 2026); and Orange County Florida comprehensive asphalt milling, resurfacing, and friction course application project (Y26-182) estimated at $125.6 million with 60-month contract term, pricing escalation, and virtual pre-bid on April 28, 2026, bids due May 21, 2026. Smaller-dollar, as-needed delivery contracts for aggregates (Pembroke Pines, Colquitt County) and crack sealing or resurfacing services (Arlington, City of Waxahachie) run alongside large multiyear pavement rehabilitation programs and state-aid-funded road overlay projects in Mississippi, Georgia, and Wisconsin.
