NIGP 77041: Flashing, Eave Strips, Gravel Guards, Ridge Rolls, Valleys, etc. (Metal)

NIGP 77041 Flashing, Eave Strips, Gravel Guards, Ridge Rolls, Valleys, Etc. (Metal) is an Item code under which state and local governments procure metal roofing components and integrated roof replacement services involving thermoplastic polyolefin (TPO) systems, torch-applied roofing membranes, silicone coatings, metal roof panels, and associated flashing, gutters, and downspout work. Recent solicitations reflect a procurement landscape dominated by roof replacement, repair, and maintenance contracts that bundle metal flashing and accessory components with broader roofing system installation, rather than standalone flashing-only purchases. Issuing bodies span state departments of transportation, county fire protection districts, independent school districts, boards of education, water management districts, and transit authorities. California Department of Transportation (Caltrans) emerges as a repeat buyer, posting multiple small-business-set-aside Invitations for Price Quotes (IFPQs) for roofing services in San Bernardino County and Los Angeles/Ventura Counties between May and October 2026. San Antonio Independent School District issued six continuous, open-ended RFPs for general maintenance services (including roofing repairs and replacements) across five-month cycles from May through October 2026, though with no guaranteed work volume and award contingent on district funding.

Recent activity concentrates in California (Caltrans procurement across San Bernardino, Los Angeles, and Ventura Counties) and Texas (school districts and state health agencies in San Antonio and Houston), with secondary activity in Maryland, Florida, Georgia, and New Mexico. Representative opportunities include Caltrans IFPQ 08A4035 for roof removal and TPO installation at two maintenance stations in Riverside and San Bernardino Counties (due October 28, 2026, restricted to SB/MB/DVBE, maximum allowable bid $484,000); Howard County Board of Education IFB 020.27.B9 for roof replacement contractor services on an annual or as-needed basis (technical bids due September 23, 2026, with sample projects ranging $150,000 to $4,000,000, 29% MBE participation goal on state-funded projects); and Santa Clara County Central Fire Protection District ITB for TPO membrane roof replacement at a fire station in San Martin, California (sealed paper bids due September 9, 2026, mandatory pre-bid site visit August 24, 2026, prevailing wage public work). Caltrans solicitations consistently require C-39 Roofing Contractor licenses, state prevailing wage compliance for bids exceeding $15,000, payment bonds for project values exceeding $25,000, and 25 percent SB participation targets with DVBE incentives. School districts and water management districts similarly require licensed roofing contractors with verifiable multi-year experience, comprehensive insurance (general liability $1 million to $2 million per occurrence), and completion within accelerated nine-to-twelve-week schedules during summer breaks or school recesses.
