NIGP 91009: Carpet Cleaning, Dyeing, Installation and Repair

NIGP 91009 Carpet Cleaning, Dyeing, Installation And Repair, an Item code, encompasses carpet and resilient flooring services that state and local governments procure on both scheduled and emergency bases—carpet extraction and shampooing, tile and vinyl floor maintenance, carpet tile and broadloom installation with base material, and specialty finishes such as stripping and waxing. Recent solicitations show a mix of routine facility maintenance contracts (carpet cleaning across county facilities, school districts, and water utilities), standalone installation projects for courthouses and administrative buildings, and comprehensive janitorial programs that bundle carpet care with broader custodial operations. Counties, cities, school districts, transit authorities, and state agencies drive the activity, with the County of Solano, California Department of Motor Vehicles, California Department of Highway Patrol, Columbus Consolidated Government, and Fulton County, Georgia appearing as repeat issuers. Activity is concentrated in California (driven by state agencies and local water districts) and Georgia (county and municipal buyers), with secondary pockets in Texas, Florida, and the Pacific Northwest. Carpet cleaning alone commands contract values ranging from $57,600 over three years (Los Gatos DMV, 26-082) to $282,600 (three-year janitorial bundle with carpet component), while installation projects typically fall into the $150,000–$200,000 range for single-location work.

Representative recent activity includes the County of Solano Department of General Services soliciting proposals for countywide commercial carpet cleaning services across 24 facilities totaling 524,406 square feet (RFP 910082626, due September 24, 2026, with an estimated annual value not to exceed $200,000 and preference for environmentally preferable products), Columbus Consolidated Government requesting bids for roll carpet, tile carpet, and installation services on an as-needed basis across city and county facilities under a two-year contract with three one-year renewal options (RFB 27-0015, due November 18, 2026, with local-vendor preference), and the Superior Court of California, County of Butte, soliciting bids for installation of approximately 717 square feet of Tarkett carpet tile with rubber base in its training room (IFB SP-2026-0023, due September 15, 2026, with 3 percent DVBE preference and Public Works wage compliance). The California Department of Highway Patrol and Cal OES frequently issue janitorial RFQs and IFBs bundling carpet cleaning with routine facility maintenance, often restricted to Small Business or DVBE vendors and carrying prevailing wage requirements. Facilities drive scope variability: detention facilities, airports, high-traffic municipal buildings, and healthcare environments command higher cleaning frequencies and specialized disinfection protocols, while routine office buildings and libraries follow standard schedules. Set-asides and preferences are common—DVBE requirements (mandatory 5 percent in CHP solicitations), SB/MB preferences (5 percent in Caltrans and Cal OES), and local-vendor preferences (two-percent threshold in Columbus) appear across recent notices. Prevailing wage applies to most California state and federal-funded work; wage rates in recent solicitations range from $15.51 to $38.06 per hour depending on role (blended benefits, janitorial labor, or specialized certifications) and jurisdiction.
