NIGP 91030: Glass Replacement, Maintenance, and Repair

NIGP 91030 Glass Replacement, Maintenance, and Repair, an Item code, covers on-call and as-needed glass repair, replacement, and installation services for windows, doors, storefronts, and specialized glazing across municipal buildings, facilities, vehicles, and infrastructure. State and local governments soliciting under this code are purchasing windshield and automotive glass repair for fleet vehicles; window and door glass replacement for office buildings, courthouses, and schools; security glass and bullet-resistant glazing for detention and youth facilities; mirror tinting and window tinting for security and privacy; and emergency board-up services for damaged storefronts and building envelope breaches. Issuing bodies span state facility management departments (Texas Health and Human Services Commission, Commonwealth of Kentucky Department for Facilities and Support Services), county governments (DeKalb County, Collin County Community College District, Montgomery County Pennsylvania, San Bernardino County), cities and municipal departments (City of Atlanta Department of Parks and Recreation, City of Fort Worth Water Department, City of Union City), school districts (Cherokee County School District, Illinois School for the Deaf), and airport authorities (Hartsfield-Jackson Atlanta International Airport). Vendors typically compete on hourly labor rates (standard, after-hours, and emergency tiers), material pricing with capped markups, response time performance, and insurance and licensure credentials. Prevailing wage requirements apply in states including Pennsylvania, California, and Texas, with prevailing wage rates for glaziers and window installers ranging from approximately $27 to $51 per hour plus fringe benefits depending on jurisdiction and trade classification.

Recent activity shows geographic concentration in the Southeast (Georgia, Texas, Pennsylvania, Florida) and West (California), with notable procurement volume from airport and secure-facility custodians emphasizing 24/7 emergency response within one to four hours, security-grade materials, and FAA or TSA compliance. Representative solicitations include Cherokee County School District's time-and-materials RFP for district-wide glass services (due July 30, 2026); Collin County Community College District's ITB for window and skylight replacement across multiple campuses (three-year term November 2024–October 2027); Montgomery County, Pennsylvania's competitive sealed bids for bullet-resistant glass and security tinting at the Youth Center (due June 11, 2026); San Bernardino County's RFP for 24/7 on-call glass repair and board-up services at 1,200 county buildings with a five-year term and not-to-exceed budget of $1,000,000 (due April 8, 2026); and the City of Fort Worth's RFQt for emergency window and door glass replacement at the Water Department (due May 8, 2026). Set-asides and preferences vary by jurisdiction—Texas agencies apply Historically Underutilized Business (HUB) subcontracting plan requirements with specified utilization percentages; San Bernardino County applies a 5 percent local preference; and Pennsylvania procurements incorporate community participation goals requiring 15 percent local business spending and 3 percent labor-hour allocation to workers within specified zip codes. Contract awards typically go to the lowest responsive and responsible bidder, with multi-award structures common to maintain standing vendor pools for emergency responsiveness.
