NIGP 89030: Manholes, and Manhole Covers, Frames, Grates, Rings, Yokes, etc.

NIGP 89030 Manholes, And Manhole Covers, Frames, Grates, Rings, Yokes, Etc., an Item code, encompasses the supply and installation of precast and cast manhole infrastructure components and rehabilitation services for gravity and pressure sewer systems, water mains, and stormwater networks across state and local jurisdictions. Recent state and local solicitations under this code reflect steady demand for both manufactured manhole components (covers, frames, risers, adjustment rings) and specialized rehabilitation services addressing corrosion, infiltration, and structural deficiencies in aging infrastructure.

Issuing bodies soliciting under 89030 span city public works departments, water utilities, county sanitation districts, and specialized authorities managing wastewater, water, and stormwater systems. Florida jurisdictions—including the City of Holly Hill, City of Bartow, and City of Waco—appear frequently, alongside Georgia (Pinellas County, City of Hagan, Liberty County, Gwinnett County), California (City of Hayward, Sanitation District No. 2-3), Texas (Dallas Water Utilities, City of Houston, City of Rio Rancho), Utah (Provo City, Lehi City), and Connecticut (City of Meriden). Recent opportunities cluster around three work streams: manhole component procurement (covers, frames, risers, grates, adjustment rings), structural repair and rehabilitation using cementitious and polyurethane linings, and new manhole installation as part of water main and sewer main replacement projects. The City of Bartow ITB 26-28 (bids due September 9, 2026) seeks manhole and structure coatings for gravity sewer and stormwater systems using cementitious, polyurethane, and epoxy coating technologies; the City of Hayward RFQ (proposals due May 11, 2026) covers rehabilitation of 21 aging manholes through mortar and epoxy composite lining; and Pinellas County bid 260652ITBC (proposals due October 13, 2026 with final bids November 5, 2026) incorporates six 4-foot diameter manholes as part of coordinated sewer and water main improvements under a 10% SBE participation goal. Geographic activity spans the South (Florida, Georgia, Texas), West (California, Utah), and Northeast (Connecticut), with no clear concentration in a single state. The code's recent activity reflects sustained municipal and utility investment in aging infrastructure rehabilitation alongside new utility installation projects, with several opportunities carrying prevailing wage, SBE set-asides, and federal Buy America requirements tied to CDBG and state grant funding.
