NIGP 87020: Awnings, Metal and Wood

NIGP 87020 Awnings, Metal and Wood, an Item code, covers fabrication and installation of metal and wood awning systems, including galvalume, aluminum, and cantilever-style structures with associated framing, fasteners, and site preparation work. State and local governments procure these systems primarily for facility protection and shade applications across parks, schools, hospitals, and administrative buildings, with recent solicitations emphasizing marine-grade or hurricane-resistant specifications, drainage compliance, and professional engineering certification. Issuing bodies include county park systems, independent school districts, state health and human services agencies, and county facilities management departments, typically soliciting on a project-by-project basis through IFB, RFP, and ITQ notice types rather than standing cooperative agreements.

Recent opportunities reflect geographic spread across Florida, Georgia, and Texas. The Hillsborough County Board of County Commissioners solicited competitive quotes (ITQ2600272) for a galvalume awning with aluminum framing at Upper Tampa Bay Park, approximately 11.5 feet by 25 feet, with mandatory site visit June 2, 2026, and quote due date June 12, 2026, estimated at $25,500. The Texas Health and Human Services Commission issued an IFB (HHS0017089) for canopy-shade installation at San Antonio State Hospital, requiring one 30' x 43' x 10' four-post hip canopy and eight 18' x 18' x 10' cantilever umbrella canopies with maintenance and support services, due March 31, 2026. The Liberty County School System in Georgia solicited sealed bids (RFP 2026-18) for canopy repair and replacement at three elementary schools, including selective demolition and installation of pre-engineered aluminum structures with concrete work, with mandatory pre-bid conference March 12, 2026, and sealed bids due March 30, 2026. The School District of Manatee County, Florida issued an ITB (SDMC No. 26-0117-MR) for general trade labor services including canopy and awning repairs on a task-order basis across district facilities, with electronic bid submittals due April 14, 2026, and a three-year contract term starting May 13, 2026.
