NIGP 87025: Reflective Film (Solar Type Sun Screen)

NIGP 87025 Reflective Film (Solar Type Sun Screen), an Item code, covers the supply, installation, maintenance, and repair of reflective and solar-control window films at state and local facilities. Recent solicitations show demand for branded products—such as Madico DG 35 and SunTek ULVDS 40—deployed across convention centers, office buildings, and other public venues to reduce solar heat gain and glare while meeting energy efficiency and occupant-comfort objectives. The work combines product procurement with skilled on-site installation, periodic maintenance, and emergency repair services, typically bundled under a single prime contract with firm-fixed pricing for materials and hourly rates for labor. Issuing bodies include special-purpose districts managing large event and convention facilities, which appear to be the primary market for this code.

The Washington Convention and Sports Authority (Events DC) posted a representative solicitation (25S056) on August 12, 2026, due August 24, 2026, seeking commercial window film purchase, installation, maintenance, and repair services for the Walter E. Washington Convention Center and other Events DC-managed venues. The scope specifies 10,000 square feet of Madico DG 35 film and 5,000 square feet of SunTek ULVDS 40, with a base contract term from October 1, 2026, through September 30, 2027, and four one-year renewal options. The District of Columbia applies DSLBD certified business enterprise preferences worth up to five points, with set-asides for small business enterprises and local hiring thresholds at $250,000 and $300,000 contract value. Contractors must carry $1 million commercial general liability per occurrence, $5 million umbrella liability, and $5 million errors and omissions coverage, along with statutory workers' compensation and $1 million cyber liability and fidelity bond. Three years of contractor experience and five years' technician experience are required, with twenty-four-hour emergency response obligations.
