NIGP 77053: Primers, Roofing

NIGP 77053 Primers, Roofing, an Item code, covers roof replacement and restoration services that state and local governments procure for facility maintenance and capital improvement projects—including removal and replacement of roofing membranes, installation of specialized systems such as TPO and standing-seam materials, flashing work, and attendant surface preparation and weatherproofing. Recent solicitations show city governments, counties, school districts, and special-purpose districts soliciting for both complete roof replacement on buildings ranging from municipal transit facilities to convention centers and on-campus structures, and for as-needed repair services across multiple facilities. The City of Rome, Georgia is requesting bids for roof coating services at its Transit Department facility (response due October 29, 2026), while the City of Tucson is soliciting an indefinite-quantity contract for roofing supplies and materials under ARPA compliance (responses due July 29, 2026). The Stephens County Board of Education in Georgia is procuring construction manager-at-risk services for districtwide roof and HVAC improvements with an estimated construction budget of $20 million to $26 million and substantial completion by December 2029 (responses due October 9, 2026). Other recent activity includes the City of Tybee Island, Georgia seeking bids for a Guard House roof replacement with a mandatory pre-bid meeting on October 15, 2026 (bids due October 27, 2026), and San Jacinto College in Houston requesting proposals for Building S10 roof refurbishment (proposals due September 9, 2026).

Issuing bodies span municipalities, county governments, school districts, and community colleges across Georgia, Arizona, Florida, California, Texas, and Wisconsin. Georgia appears as a repeat jurisdiction with multiple recent solicitations from Rome, Tybee Island, Stephens County Schools, and College Park (Georgia International Convention Center). Counties in California—Santa Clara and Okaloosa—are actively procuring both single-project roof replacements and as-needed repair services. Current procurement activity emphasizes TPO and synthetic membrane systems, prevailing-wage public works compliance in states like California and Florida, mandatory pre-bid site visits and meetings, detailed insurance and bonding requirements (often 100% of contract value), manufacturer warranties of 20 to 50 years depending on material type, and contractor licensing (C-39 roofing license in California jurisdictions). Liquidated damages, architectural review, and integration with existing systems such as lightning protection are common contractual elements in higher-value projects.
