NIGP 91122: C.i.p., Demolition Contract

NIGP 91122 C.i.p., Demolition Contract is an Item code under which state and local governments procure complete and selective demolition services—including structure removal, debris disposal, site grading, asbestos abatement, utility disconnection, and site restoration—for commercial, residential, institutional, and infrastructure properties. Recent opportunities show cities, counties, school districts, and special-purpose authorities (airports, transit agencies, redevelopment districts) issuing ITBs and RFPs for demolition work with response deadlines typically 30 to 60 days from posting. Scope ranges from single-structure demolition at modest budgets ($18,444 to $100,000) to multi-property bundles and phased institutional projects exceeding $200,000. Asbestos abatement compliance, environmental remediation, hazardous-materials assessment, and bonding are now standard contract requirements; prevailing wage and liquidated-damages clauses appear in most municipal and county solicitations. Prime contractors frequently must self-perform or co-perform a minimum 30–60 percent of work; subcontractor coordination is typical. Demolition-specific licensing (general contractor, asbestos supervisor, or equivalent state/local credentials) and three to five years of demonstrated experience with similar scope are common qualifications gates.

Recent activity concentrates in Florida (City of Bartow CRA, City of Ocala, Orange County, Melbourne Airport Authority), Texas (Bell County, City of Lubbock, City of Brownsville, Lubbock Power & Light), Georgia (City of Lawrenceville, Atlanta Public Schools, Atlanta Beltline, City of Atlanta, City of Union City, City of Fayetteville), and Colorado (Boulder County), with lighter but present activity in Washington (Pierce County school district), Pennsylvania (Montgomery County), Connecticut (City of New Haven), and Missouri (Jackson County). The City of Ocala and Bell County, Texas appear as repeat buyers issuing multiple demolition solicitations within the same recent period. Representative recent opportunities include the City of Bartow CRA's demolition of 970 E Main Street (ITB 2633, closed October 14, 2026, $100,000 maximum budget), City of Ocala's three concurrent RFQs for residential demolition at different addresses (September–November 2026 timeframe), Melbourne Airport Authority's demolition and clearing of classroom and hangar buildings (ITB 20260917, October 20, 2026 deadline), Atlanta Beltline's three-project demolition bundle with 30% DBE participation goal (July 8, 2026 deadline), and Boulder County's Copper Door facility abatement and deconstruction RFP (May 28, 2026 deadline). Contract values, timelines, and issuing-body types reflect a maturing market where demolition demand is driven by community redevelopment, facility decommissioning, municipal code enforcement, and surplus-property disposition.
