NIGP 96894: Waterproofing Systems and Repair

NIGP 96894 Waterproofing Systems And Repair, an Item code, covers roof replacement, repair, and restoration work that state and local governments solicit across institutional, municipal, and utility facilities—work including membrane installation, flashing, coating systems, structural repairs to decking and sheathing, and water infiltration remediation. Recent solicitations show this code driving activity from city governments, county agencies, school districts, universities, and water authorities pursuing complete roof replacements and waterproofing retrofits on buildings ranging from small community facilities to large institutional complexes. The issuing-body mix spans municipal departments (City of Madison, City of Tallahassee, City of Santa Cruz), counties (Cobb County, DeKalb County, Walker County, Dorchester County, Glynn County, Gwinnett County, Clackamas County, Santa Clara County), special districts (San Jacinto Community College District, Mt. San Antonio Community College District, Macon Water Authority, Seminole County), universities (University of Houston, Augusta University), and school districts (Clarke County, Butts County), with no single buyer dominating the code.

Representative recent opportunities include the City of Madison's Normal Hall Roof Replacement (RFB, bids due August 6, 2026) covering asphalt shingle replacement on a historic park pavilion with archaeological monitoring requirements; the Macon Water Authority's Rocky Creek Water Reclamation Facility Maintenance Building Roof Replacement (sealed bids due May 12, 2026) specifying removal and installation of 60-mil PVC membrane with tapered insulation; San Jacinto Community College District's Building S15 Roof and Envelope Repairs (CSP, proposals due May 6, 2026) targeting restoration and recoating of modified bitumen membrane across 43,000 square feet at approximately $1.9 million; the University of Houston's Cullen Performance Hall Roof Replacement (RFP, proposals due July 17, 2026) addressing low-sloped built-up roof and waterproofing on an auditorium; and the City of Santa Cruz's DeLaveaga Golf Course Driving Range Roof and Building Improvements (IFB, bids due May 20, 2026) requiring structural framing replacement, concrete topping slab, and TPO roofing with site accessibility work. Activity concentrates in Georgia (multiple counties and municipalities), Texas (Houston-area institutions), and California (Santa Cruz, Santa Clara), with additional recent solicitations in Florida (Seminole County, Tallahassee), South Carolina (Dorchester), Connecticut (Meriden), Colorado (Boulder), and Oregon (Clackamas). The code is seeing steady procurement velocity across the second quarter and summer of 2026, with notice types split between IFB (sealed competitive bids), RFP (sealed proposals), and occasional RFQ (qualifications-based selection), and most response windows falling in the 30–60 day range with mandatory pre-bid or pre-proposal meetings common.
