NIGP 90566: Runway Grooving Services, Airport

NIGP 90566 Runway Grooving Services, Airport is an Item code covering runway and taxiway surface rehabilitation, pavement repair, and airfield infrastructure restoration work that state and local airport authorities currently procure on an ongoing basis. Recent solicitations show airport systems buying cold milling, asphalt surface course placement, joint and crack repair, pavement markings, runway surface grooving, taxiway realignment, drainage improvements, airfield lighting modifications, and de-icing equipment maintenance alongside supporting services. The issuing bodies span municipal airport authorities (Dallas, Waco, McKinney, Camarillo, Atlanta, Augusta, Okaloosa County, Swainsboro), with Dallas appearing as a repeat buyer through its 60-month Indefinite Delivery/Indefinite Quantity agreement for pavement maintenance across three airport facilities. Contractors bidding under this code must typically demonstrate minimum three to five years of FAA and local standards-compliant experience, hold current airfield-access credentials and movement-area badging, maintain comprehensive insurance including $2 million commercial general liability per occurrence, comply with prevailing wage requirements where applicable, and meet set-aside participation goals (Dallas requires 30% SBE participation; McKinney specifies zero percent DBE but mandates DBE compliance and documentation).
