NIGP 91079: Window Installation, Maintenance and Repair (Metal)

NIGP 91079 Window Installation, Maintenance And Repair (Metal) is an Item code covering the supply and installation of metal-framed windows, storefront glazing systems, entrance doors, and related hardware at state and local facilities. State and local governments procure this work for building envelope repairs, facility renovations, and emergency window replacement across a mix of issuing bodies including universities, county facilities, municipal buildings, state health agencies, and community colleges. The work typically includes demolition of existing windows or doors, fabrication and installation of commercial aluminum or metal storefront systems with thermally broken framing, impact-resistant glazing where required by building code, door hardware including panic devices and closers, electronic access control integration, shop drawings, field measurement and site verification, caulking and weatherproofing, and closeout documentation. Contractors commonly must respond to service requests within defined windows (four to eight hours for routine maintenance, faster for emergencies), maintain minimum five years of relevant experience, provide three verifiable references, carry comprehensive insurance including general liability, workers' compensation, and professional liability coverage in the $1 million to $2 million range, and warrant workmanship for one year post-completion.

Recent activity shows issuing bodies spanning state agencies (Texas Health and Human Services Commission, Colorado Northwestern Community College, University of Colorado, Sam Houston State University), county governments (Monroe County, Broward County, Marion County, DeKalb County, San Bernardino County, Boulder County), municipalities (City of Detroit, City of Kissimmee, City of Burlington, City of Lubbock, City of Tucson), and special-purpose districts (New Smyrna Beach Utilities, Orlando Utilities Commission, Everett Community College).
