NIGP 80536: Billiard and Pool Tables and Supplies

NIGP 80536 Billiard and Pool Tables and Supplies, an Item code, encompasses recreational gaming tables and accessories that state and local governments procure for parks, recreation facilities, and correctional programs. The code captures pool tables, billiard equipment, and related gaming supplies—including cue racks, accessory kits, and card games—purchased by county parks departments, sheriff's offices, and regional cooperative purchasing entities. Recent solicitations show mixed demand: Gwinnett County (Georgia) requested pool tables alongside air hockey, shuffleboard, and table tennis equipment for two parks; the County of Orange Sheriff-Coroner (California) sought card games and game pieces for a correctional facility; and Sourcewell (Minnesota cooperative) issued an RFP for law enforcement equipment that encompasses broader gaming and recreational supplies for thousands of participating public entities across multiple states and Canada. Issuers range from individual county parks and recreation departments to large multi-jurisdictional cooperative purchasing vehicles.

Geographic activity centers on the Southeast and West Coast, with Sourcewell's national and cross-border cooperative purchasing structure extending reach throughout the United States and Canada. The most recent concrete opportunities reflect concentrated demand: Gwinnett County Department of Parks and Recreation issued an informal written quote (IWQ 135353) due September 17, 2026 for thirty-four pieces of recreational gaming equipment including two 7-foot and two 8-foot pool tables, four accessory kits, cue storage racks, air hockey and shuffleboard tables, and table tennis tables, with delivery and installation required by October 2026; the County of Orange Sheriff-Coroner posted IFB #060-3038102-CC (due June 18, 2026) for indoor gaming supplies including domino sets, poker cards, checkers, chess pieces, and card games for a correctional facility, offering five percent to eight percent preference deductions for local small business and disabled veteran business enterprise certifications; and Sourcewell's RFP #061626 (due June 16, 2026) established a cooperative contracting vehicle for law enforcement equipment available to participating entities in Washington, California, Minnesota, and beyond. Vendors pursuing this code should anticipate single-manufacturer requirements for pool and gaming tables, delivery and installation obligations, and insurance thresholds of $1 million to $2 million in commercial general liability coverage.
