NIGP 95322: Boiler

NIGP 95322 Boiler, an Item code, encompasses furnishing and installing boiler equipment and related hydronic systems for public facilities including schools, municipal housing, universities, and government buildings. State and local governments solicit boiler replacement work through sealed bids and RFPs that typically include complete scope coverage—equipment supply, installation labor, permits, inspections, demolition, disposal, and commissioning—bundled into fixed-fee or not-to-exceed pricing. Issuing bodies span school districts (Osceola County Florida, Monroe Michigan), cities (Madison), counties (Clarke County Georgia, El Paso County Texas), state departments (South Dakota Department of the Military), and university systems (University System of Georgia). Recent solicitations have named specific equipment manufacturers and system components, reflecting capital-improvement focus on high-efficiency replacements with warranty and training requirements. Bidders commonly face mandatory pre-bid meetings or site visits, submission of bid bonds equal to five percent of proposal amount, performance and material bonds for contracts exceeding $50,000, and prevailing-wage compliance (Davis-Bacon) where applicable. Affirmative Action and state-specific disclosure requirements appear in multiple jurisdictions.
