NIGP 95214: Cemetery Services (Including Operation, Management, and Maintenance)

NIGP 95214 Cemetery Services (Including Operation, Management, and Maintenance) is an Item code under which state and local governments procure grounds maintenance, restoration, beautification design, and indigent burial and cremation services at public cemeteries. Recent solicitations show municipalities and counties purchasing year-round landscape maintenance including mowing, edging, fertilizing, and debris removal; stone conservation and grave marker restoration at historic cemetery sites; architectural and engineering design for cemetery beautification projects; and comprehensive indigent cremation and burial services including transportation, embalming, caskets, grave markers, and funeral arrangements. Issuing bodies include city procurement offices (Gainesville, Savannah, College Park), county purchasing departments (Rockland County New York, Collier County Florida, Hays County Texas), and county health departments coordinating indigent services. The code draws activity from general-purpose municipalities, counties, and specialized county health authorities across multiple states.
