NIGP 80516: Athletic Facility Storage Equipment (incl. Locker Room Equipment)

NIGP 80516 Athletic Facility Storage Equipment (Incl. Locker Room Equipment), an Item code, encompasses the procurement of athletic lockers, storage systems, and related facility infrastructure that state and local governments buy to outfit and maintain athletic facilities across schools, universities, and municipal recreation centers. Recent state and local solicitations show activity concentrated in independent school districts, county school systems, universities, and municipal parks departments acquiring locker systems, storage racks, equipment carts, and associated installation services to support competitive athletics and physical education programs. School districts dominate the issuing-body mix, with independent school districts in Texas (Harlingen CISD, Donna ISD, Los Fresnos CISD, Trion City Schools, Randolph County Schools) and athletic departments at higher-education institutions (University of Wisconsin-La Crosse, Albany State University) posting the most recent opportunities. The code sees activity across multiple states including Texas, Georgia, Wisconsin, Florida, and Maine, with Texas school districts accounting for a significant share of recent procurement volume.

Representative recent opportunities include Harlingen Consolidated Independent School District's RFCSP 002-27 for Athletic Equipment, Supplies and Related Services (posted July 1, 2026, due July 1, 2026) with an estimated annual contract value of $867,443.31 covering 15 sports programs across 31 campuses, and the University of Wisconsin-La Crosse's RFB for 149 athletic lockers for Football and Soccer team locker rooms at Mitchell Hall (posted February 24, 2026, due March 10, 2026). Sarasota County issued an RFQ for design, supply, and installation of four volleyball court systems at Siesta Beach (posted June 9, 2026, due June 26, 2026) with full corrosion-resistant specification requirements for saltwater environments. Tolleson Union High School District, acting on behalf of the SAVE cooperative purchasing consortium, issued IFB 27-10-31 for athletic equipment and supplies covering 880 line items across 23 school districts with projected annual usage of $4.1 million and a contract term from July 1, 2026 through June 30, 2027 with optional four-year renewals. Most school-district procurements use catalog discount bids with multiple awards across sport-specific line items (football, soccer, baseball, softball, track, wrestling, volleyball, tennis, golf, and cross country equipment and supplies), while facility-focused solicitations (lockers, court systems, weight room outfitting) typically seek design-build or turnkey installation vendors on a single-award basis.
