NIGP 97575: Snow Plows and Accessory Rental or Lease

NIGP 97575 Snow Plows And Accessory Rental Or Lease, an Item code, covers the purchase, lease, and upfitting of snowplow equipment and related components for municipal winter maintenance operations. State and local governments soliciting under this code are buying new snowplow units, dump-body upfits with snow hydraulics, salt spreader provisions, and integrated accessories such as lighting and tarp systems for integration with existing fleet assets. The issuing bodies pursuing this work are municipal fleet services departments managing winter road maintenance programs; Little Rock Fleet Services Department appears as a repeat buyer with multiple recent solicitations in the same timeframe.

Recent opportunities cluster in Arkansas, with the City of Little Rock Fleet Services Department posting two related procurements in May and June 2026: an Invitation to Bid (ITB) due June 11, 2026, for the upfit of two International chassis trucks with Force America dump bodies, hydraulic systems, snowplow provisions, and salt spreader equipment requiring completion within eight weeks; and a purchase solicitation due July 2, 2026, for snowplows and related equipment specified as homogenous with the City's existing inventory. The ITB carries standard municipal compliance requirements including $1,000,000 minimum liability insurance, Arkansas business licensing for awarded vendors, and certifications addressing non-boycott of Israel and compliance with state employment law. Pricing is required valid for ninety days post-bid opening, with standard net-30 payment terms and awards made on an all-or-none basis to the lowest qualified bidder.
