NIGP 74549: Expansion Joint Material: Asphalt, Rubber, etc.

NIGP 74549 Expansion Joint Material: Asphalt, Rubber, Etc., Item, encompasses crack sealing compounds, asphalt overlays, and joint-repair materials that state and local governments procure for pavement maintenance—though recent solicitations reveal the code captures broader pavement repair and rehabilitation work where expansion-joint and crack-sealing materials are embedded line items rather than standalone procurements. State and local issuing bodies soliciting under this code include city public works departments, county transportation and engineering divisions, school districts, community colleges, county sanitation districts, and airport authorities. The Arlington Public Works Department (Texas) posted an annual requirements contract for crack sealing services on asphalt streets in September 2026; Pinellas County Schools (Florida) sought resurfacing, resealing, and restriping across district facilities under an ITB with a contract value near $300,000 and a mandatory pre-bid conference in July 2026; and the Hartsfield-Jackson Atlanta International Airport Department of Aviation requested airfield pavement repairs including joint and crack sealing at the Air Operations Area in June 2026. Work spans concrete and asphalt rehabilitation, with contract vehicles ranging from annual requirements agreements to fixed-price ITBs and RFPs, and contract values from roughly $300,000 to $2.5 million when specified.

The City of Waxahachie (Texas) issued an RFP for miscellaneous pavement repairs with primary and secondary contractor awards across concrete and asphalt categories, due June 20, 2024 (note: this deadline appears historical).
