NIGP 86325: Tires and Tubes, Industrial

NIGP 86325 Tires And Tubes, Industrial is an Item code under which state and local governments procure industrial and specialty tires, tire retreading and repair services, tire disposal, and tire-related parts and labor for fleet and equipment maintenance. Recent solicitations show demand for full-spectrum tire supply and service — stock and non-stock tires from major OEM brands, emergency roadside repair and replacement, mounting and balancing, retreading, patching and plug repair, scrap tire disposal, and parts availability on as-needed bases. Issuing bodies span city procurement departments (Austin, Atlanta, Altamonte Springs, Milpitas), county fleet and development services divisions (Jackson County Missouri, Collier County Florida, Pinal County Arizona), transit and school district purchasing (Sarasota County Schools), and special-purpose cooperative purchasing vehicles (Sourcewell on behalf of Washington-state counties and national public entities). Cities and counties with active fleet management operations are repeat buyers; Collier County's recent ITB reflects historical annual spend near $400,000 on tires and services, with grant funding available through Federal Transit Administration vehicles.

Recent opportunities cluster in the Southeast and Southwest through mid-2026. The City of Austin issued IFB 7800 MLJ1043 in March 2026 for vehicle tire repair and replacement services with an estimated annual value of $275,000 and a 24-month initial term; response due April 23, 2026. Collier County, Florida, issued ITB 25-8357 in March 2026 for tires and tire services across approximately 1,610 fleet vehicles with a three-year term and two optional one-year renewals; the procurement includes Federal Transit Administration grant compliance and Local Vendor Preference set-aside. Jackson County, Missouri, solicited bids for off-road, agricultural, industrial, and specialty tires and associated maintenance and repair with response due August 18, 2026. The City of Milpitas, California, issued a broad MRO blanket purchase order IFB in July 2026 (response due August 4, 2026) that includes fleet tires as one of five supply categories, with California prevailing wage and recycled-content standards and local vendor preference. School districts and smaller municipal operations solicit roadside tire repair and replacement quotations; the School Board of Sarasota County sought firm hourly pricing and per-tire service pricing for white fleet vehicles with S/MBE preference consideration.
