NIGP 79575: Sheeting, Slitting, Spooling, and Notching Machines

NIGP 79575 Sheeting, Slitting, Spooling, and Notching Machines, an Item code, encompasses industrial processing equipment used in state and local operations, though the recent solicitation activity under this code is minimal and does not align with the traditional machinery taxonomy. The City of Milpitas issued a broad blanket-purchase-order IFB in July 2026 for Maintenance, Repair, and Operating (MRO) supplies across five categories — General MRO Supplies and Facilities Maintenance Supplies; Fleet Maintenance Supplies; Park and Landscaping Maintenance Supplies; Utility Operations and Maintenance Supplies; and Street Maintenance Supplies — spanning plumbing fixtures, HVAC components, paints, electrical conduit, custodial cleaning products, traffic control equipment, aggregate materials, fleet tires, irrigation components, and chemicals. This breadth suggests that industrial equipment categorization in state and local procurement reflects actual acquisition patterns driven by maintenance needs rather than strict machinery specialization.

The City of Milpitas, a California municipality, conducted the sole recent opportunity identified under this code, posting IFB 26-229 on July 17, 2026, with a response deadline of August 4, 2026. The contract offered a five-year term with multiple awards intended across each category to ensure vendor capacity; California prevailing wage requirements apply, and a local purchasing preference benefits eligible local providers within ten percent of the lowest responsible bidder. Bids required minimum commercial general liability insurance of $1,000,000 per occurrence and submission through the OpenGov portal, with questions due July 2, 2026.
