NIGP 92656: Lead Abatement Supervisor

NIGP 92656 Lead Abatement Supervisor is an Item code that captures state and local procurement activity for lead remediation and inspection services on residential properties, with work ranging from comprehensive lead-based paint inspections and risk assessments to full abatement and hazard remediation. State and local governments procure these services primarily through Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) programs funding minor and major home rehabilitation projects, with activity concentrated in municipal community development departments, county public works agencies, and regional authorities managing housing compliance and lead hazard mitigation programs.

The City of Lubbock Community Development Department dominates the recent opportunity stream, issuing dozens of concurrent ITBs and RFQs for lead-based paint inspection and risk assessment services on individual residential properties since April 2026, with response dates clustered between May and August 2026. Representative opportunities include Lubbock's CDBG Lead Based Paint Inspection and Risk Assessment 2026-125GD (Casarez property, sealed bids due July 13, 2026), Rockland County Department of Community Development's RFP for lead abatement and remediation services under a qualified supplier list with proposals due July 9, 2026, and the City of Bridgeport Connecticut's sealed-bid solicitation for enabling, demolition, and abatement work as Phase 1 of John Winthrop Elementary School Renovation (mandatory pre-bid walk-through April 23, 2026, bids due May 20, 2026). Geographic activity centers on Texas (Lubbock dominates) with secondary activity in New York (Rockland County), Connecticut (Bridgeport), Colorado (Boulder County), Florida (Pasco County), and Georgia (Union City). Lubbock's procurement volume reflects CDBG-funded housing rehabilitation patterns where lead inspection and abatement precede or accompany property rehabilitation; Rockland County's open-enrollment qualified supplier list model indicates ongoing programmatic demand for licensed professionals capable of full abatement and remediation services meeting EPA and state standards. Prevailing wage, certification requirements (EPA Lead-Safe, IICRC, TDLR, NADCA), performance bonds, and federal compliance (24 CFR 570, 24 CFR 35, 40 CFR 745) are standard across solicitations.
