NIGP 96170: Sugar Refining Services

NIGP 96170 Sugar Refining Services, an Item code, does not align with the state and local procurement activity documented in the source. The single recent opportunity on record—City of DeBary, Florida's Rob Sullivan Park Irrigation Improvements (Bid 03-15, due April 10, 2015)—solicits construction of an irrigation system upgrade involving Hunter irrigation controllers, master valves, flow meters, and related piping installation. This work falls under building and grounds maintenance and construction, not sugar refining. The source does not contain any documented solicitations for sugar refining services from state or local governments.

No procurement activity under NIGP 96170 appears in the available recent-opportunity record. The misalignment between the code's commodity description and the single opportunity presented suggests either a data classification error or the absence of state and local demand for sugar refining services during the period covered by the source.
