NIGP 86365: Recapped/Retreaded Tires (see Class 928 If Recapping/Retreading Own Tires As A Service)

NIGP 86365 Recapped/Retreaded Tires, an Item code, encompasses the procurement of remanufactured tire inventory and associated installation and repair services that state and local governments source for fleet maintenance and operational readiness. State and local buyers under this code are acquiring on-road and off-road tires in bulk, tire installation and removal labor, retreading and recapping services with casings credited back to the buyer, tire disposal (including scrap tire management), and emergency roadside or on-site tire repair capability. Issuing bodies span utilities (Orlando Utilities Commission), county governments (Jackson County, Missouri), and city departments (City of Atlanta), typically bundling tire procurement with maintenance and repair labor under multi-year term contracts or as-needed supply agreements. The scope reflects operational fleets rather than specialty resale; buyers specify tire brands, tread types, and sizes to match vehicle classes and emphasize environmental compliance in scrap disposal and emergency service availability across extended hours.

Recent activity appears concentrated in the Southeast and Midwest. The Orlando Utilities Commission posted RFP PR9446 on September 28, 2026 (due September 16, 2026, now closed) seeking tire sales, installation, removal, and specialty tire services across four facilities with a three-year contract term and optional one-year renewals; Jackson County, Missouri issued IFB 26046 on July 16, 2026 (due August 18, 2026) for off-road, agricultural, industrial, and specialty tires with maintenance and repair over twenty-four months and one optional twelve-month extension; and the City of Atlanta posted IFB/GS/DPW/2601-1260107 on April 30, 2026 (due May 8, 2026) requiring tires of all sizes, retreading services with full inspection documentation, environmentally compliant scrap disposal, and emergency field repair availability through a vendor-registered portal. Vendor qualification thresholds in recent bids include minimum ten years of industry experience, established local office locations within specified radii, proper licensing and insurance, and demonstrated safety and quality program compliance.
