NIGP 87030: Shade Screens, Louvered or Perforated

NIGP 87030 Shade Screens, Louvered or Perforated is an Item code covering the supply and installation of metal louvers, shade sails, and related screening systems that state and local governments install for sun and weather protection on buildings and parks. Recent solicitations show government purchasers acquiring both permanent architectural louver assemblies integrated into facility renovation projects and temporary or replacement shade-sail systems for recreational spaces. Issuing bodies include county sheriff's offices undertaking major capital facility work, county parks and recreation departments managing public spaces, and county boards of commissioners funding disaster recovery. The work spans architectural fabrication and installation of high-performance louver systems with extended warranties, through to straightforward replacement of wear-and-tear shade structures in parks.

Recent activity concentrates in Florida, where Collier County Sheriff's Office posted an ITB (268693) in October 2026 for full replacement of an exterior metal louver wall assembly as part of a $3,000,000 jail roof and louver repair project with a response date of October 12, 2026 and mandatory site visits as a condition of responsiveness, and Clay County Board of County Commissioners issued an RFQ (2526091) in July 2026 for two thirty-foot tri-sail shade net replacements at Moody Avenue Park in Orange Park with quotes due July 28, 2026 and total project cost of $21,170 funded partly through FEMA Public Assistance. Both solicitations required licensed contractors, commercial general liability insurance, and compliance with applicable state building codes and federal regulations where disaster recovery funding applied.
