NIGP 76561: Snow Plows and/or Snow Wings, Vehicle Mounted

NIGP 76561 Snow Plows And/Or Snow Wings, Vehicle Mounted is an Item code covering vehicle-mounted snow removal equipment—principally plow blades, wings, and integrated hydraulic systems—that state and local governments install on pickup trucks and heavy-duty chassis for winter road maintenance. Recent solicitations show procurement of turnkey snow plow assemblies with dump bodies, hydraulic controls, spreader systems, and wear components fitted to specific truck platforms, as well as standalone replacement and repair parts for existing fleets. Counties, municipalities, and state transportation departments are the primary buyers, along with special districts and fire protection agencies that maintain snow-removal capability; the Illinois Department of Transportation and Portage County, Wisconsin appear as repeat purchasers managing large geographically distributed fleets.

Activity centers in Wisconsin, California, Illinois, and Utah, with municipal and county highway departments leading current procurement volume. Portage County, Wisconsin issued Solicitation 202622PC (RFQ, due July 28, 2026) for installation of Burke plow blades, wings, and hydraulic systems on two Western Star chassis trucks, requiring manufacturer or authorized-distributor status with five years' experience and two-year minimum equipment warranty. The City of Little Rock Fleet Services Department solicited upfit of two International chassis with Force America dump bodies and snow hydraulics (ITB 236945, due June 11, 2026, closed), followed by a second RFQ for homogenous snowplow equipment (Solicitation 239971, due July 2, 2026). The Illinois Department of Transportation declared emergency procurements for Monroe and Bonnell/Flink brand plow repair parts across divisions D1–D9 (IFBs 26494DOTFINADB51569 and 26494DOTFINADB51853, estimated $475,000 and $112,500 respectively, both due mid-to-late July 2026), addressing equipment deterioration from years of deferred maintenance after an anticipated CMS Master contract replacement failed to materialize. San Bernardino County Fire Protection District issued two nearly identical ITBs for snow loader procurement with reversible plow attachments (FPD126FIREA6383 in April and FPD126FIREA6403 in May 2026). The State of Illinois also solicited a four-year Joint Purchase Master Contract (JPMC 26416CMSBOSS4B50785, IFB due March 11, 2026) for repair parts and accessories covering Raiko, Monroe, Swenson, and Dickey-John equipment across all governmental units and qualified nonprofits statewide, with 24-hour and 72-hour delivery requirements and percent-discount-off-MSRP pricing by product line.
