NIGP 92846: Glass Replacement and Repair Services, Windshield and Window (Auto), (Including Window Tinting Services)

NIGP 92846 Glass Replacement And Repair Services, Windshield And Window (Auto), Including Window Tinting Services is an Item code under which state and local governments procure windshield and window replacement, glass repair, chip and crack remediation, window tinting installation and removal, and Advanced Driver-Assistance Systems calibration for fleet vehicles. Recent solicitations show broad issuing-body participation: state departments (New Jersey Division of the Treasury, Texas Office of the Attorney General), counties (Orange County, Florida; Pulaski County, Georgia; Seminole County, Florida), cities (Phoenix, Atlanta, St. Cloud, McKinney), higher education institutions (Texas A&M University, Austin Community College), and fire and EMS departments. State fleets drive significant volume—the New Jersey Department of the Treasury solicitation covers statewide using agencies across five geographic regions; the City of Phoenix procurement spans over 8,000 vehicles across multiple service locations. Scope ranges from straightforward window tinting ($10,000 annual expenditure in McKinney, Texas) to comprehensive multi-region fleet glass and repair services (Phoenix's three-year contract with two optional one-year extensions, requiring ADAS calibration on light, medium, and heavy-duty equipment). Work includes on-site repair at fleet facilities, mobile services delivered to field locations, and contractor-location services; turnaround-time requirements vary from two business days (New Jersey) to 72 hours for specialty items (Atlanta).
