NIGP 91455: Masonry

NIGP 91455 Masonry, an Item code, covers repair, restoration, and new installation work in masonry and related exterior finishes at state and local facilities. Recent state and local solicitations show demand for facade restoration, gravestone preservation, sound wall and barrier wall repairs, masonry structural work on building projects, and masonry components within larger site-construction initiatives. The issuing bodies span community colleges and technical colleges in Washington, Georgia, and Massachusetts; municipal departments in Wisconsin, Massachusetts, Connecticut, Florida, and Texas; county governments and public authorities; and specialized agencies such as state departments of enterprise services, military departments, and public library boards. Repeat solicitors include Skagit Valley College, Yakima Valley College, and other Washington community colleges posting campus infrastructure work; Washington's Department of Enterprise Services; and Texas Military Department facilities.

Activity concentrates in Washington State (particularly community college system projects), Massachusetts (municipal and library restoration work), Texas (military department and municipal projects), Georgia, Connecticut, and California.
