NIGP 91313: Construction, Bridge and Drawbridge (Includes Reconstruction/Rehabilitation)

NIGP 91313 Construction, Bridge and Drawbridge (Includes Reconstruction/Rehabilitation) is an Item code encompassing the full scope of bridge replacement, repair, rehabilitation, and reconstruction work that state and local governments solicit across multiple issuing bodies. State and local agencies procure structural repairs to aging bridge infrastructure, including deck resurfacing, railing replacement, swing-bridge mechanism retrofitting, paint and coating work, approach reconstruction, seismic upgrades, erosion control at bridge foundations, pedestrian bridge rehabilitation, and related ancillary work such as utility coordination and traffic management. Recent solicitations show bridge work ranging from minor bascule-bridge maintenance contracts to multi-million-dollar complete replacements, with scopes including concrete work, structural steel fabrication and welding, component refurbishment (bearings, pins, rollers), marine/dredging services where applicable, and emergency response capabilities on active structures. Bridge inspection services, including annual overhaul and certification work, also fall within this code's recent activity.

Cities, counties, state transportation departments, regional water authorities, and special-purpose districts issue under this code; standout repeat buyers include the Florida Department of Environmental Protection (Bureau of Design and Construction), Hillsborough County (Florida), Seminole County (Florida), and state DOT agencies. Geographic concentration appears strongest in Florida, Georgia, and California, with scattered activity in Maryland, Oregon, Washington, Texas, Colorado, and Mississippi. Representative opportunities include Hillsborough County's Kirby Street Pump Station rehabilitation (IFB-26-00404, responses due November 13, 2026, estimated $1,473,476.90); the City of Chattahoochee Hills' Cochran Mill Park bridge repair/replacement (RFP27-001, sealed proposals due November 19, 2026); Union County, Georgia's Spiva Cove Bridge replacement and culvert repair (proposals due November 11, 2026); and Seminole County's Master Services Agreement for miscellaneous bridge repairs (bids due November 18, 2026, Engineer's estimate $1.2 million annually). Bid security, performance bonds, and payment bonds equal to 100 percent of contract value are consistently required; FDOT prequalification or state licensure is a mandatory gate on many solicitations. Several Florida projects carry green-building and seismic-compliance mandates; federal-aid projects impose Davis-Bacon and ARRA prevailing wage requirements.
