NIGP 96718: Asphalt and Saturated Materials Manufacturing Services

NIGP 96718 Asphalt and Saturated Materials Manufacturing Services, an Item code, covers specialized asphalt resurfacing, sealing, striping, and raw materials procurement that state and local governments source to maintain and repair pavement infrastructure. Recent solicitations show school districts, counties, and municipalities buying resurfacing and resealing work on existing asphalt pavements, bituminous concrete paving services on designated streets, and proprietary materials such as rock asphalt — a naturally infused limestone aggregate that delivers superior cohesion and repair longevity compared to standard cold mix. Issuing bodies range from school districts (Pinellas County Schools, Florida) to counties (Hillsborough County, Florida; Dallas County, Texas; White County, Georgia) and cities (Owensboro, Kentucky; Sylvester, Georgia). Work is typically structured as indefinite-quantity or pick-up contracts allowing multiple agencies to purchase under a single award, with mandatory equipment ownership, prior project experience, and background screening or bonding requirements common across notices.

Geographic activity concentrates in Florida and Georgia, with secondary solicitation activity in Texas and Kentucky. Representative recent opportunities include Pinellas County Schools' ITB for resurfacing, resealing, and restriping countywide (response due August 4, 2026) at approximately $300,000 over one year with maximum two awards within 70 miles of the district office; Hillsborough County's sole-source procurement intent for rock asphalt to Blades Group LLC (challenges due June 3, 2026) valued at $246,192 over three years; the City of Owensboro's ITB for pick-up bituminous concrete paving (response due June 2, 2026); and White County's sealed-bid asphalt paving and road maintenance solicitation on six county roads under the LMIG 2026 program (bids due March 27, 2026). School districts and county transportation or public works departments are repeat buyers under this code.
