NIGP 96232: Etching and Stained Glass Services

NIGP 96232 Etching and Stained Glass Services, an Item code, encompasses glass repair, replacement, installation, and related finishing work that state and local governments procure for municipal facilities, fleet maintenance, and infrastructure projects. The work includes window glass installation across commercial and residential properties, custom glass fabrication, windshield and vehicular glass repair, tinting services, and integration with existing building and equipment systems. Issuing bodies soliciting under this code span municipal departments (environmental services, parks and recreation, fleet management), housing authorities, and city procurement offices. The work is typically procured as either single-project contracts or annual requirements agreements with multiple on-call vendors to serve departmental needs on an as-needed basis.

Recent activity shows solicitations in Florida, Arizona, and Georgia. The City of DeBary, Florida posted an IFB for irrigation system improvements at Rob Sullivan Park (Solicitation 0315, due April 10, 2015), though the scope reflects infrastructure work outside the core glass services taxonomy. The City of Tucson, Arizona issued RFP No. 226043 (due August 18, 2022) for an annual requirements contract covering furnishing and installation of window glass, aluminum walls, and screens for Environmental and General Services and Housing and Community Development departments, with HUD funding for residential rehabilitation work and Section 3 compliance requirements mandating 25% labor hours from Section 3 Workers. The City of Atlanta Department of Parks and Recreation released a prequalification Statement of Qualifications (due June 18, 2026) leading to an IFB for glass repair, replacement, installation, and tinting services for municipal fleet vehicles, with response turnaround requirements of 24–72 hours for parts supply and 3–5 business days for standard repairs, a 95% on-time completion rate threshold, and requirements for OEM-compliant service and certified technicians.
