NIGP 86555: Marline Twine

NIGP 86555 Marine Twine, an Item code, covers natural and synthetic cordage products that state and local governments procure for marine operations, dock and harbor maintenance, fishing and aquaculture support, and general utility applications where salt-water-resistant or weather-durable binding and rigging materials are required. The code captures twine used in commercial fishing operations, government marine facilities, and water-resource management activities where standard cordage would degrade rapidly in saltwater or high-moisture environments.

No recent state or local contract opportunities under NIGP 86555 Marine Twine appear in available procurement records. Without posted solicitations or awarded contracts to characterize current buying patterns, geographic concentration, or issuing-body participation, firms should monitor cooperative purchasing catalogs and regional maritime authorities for future activity under this code.
