About this file
This is a guidance document from the State of Texas providing vendor search assistance related to the Veteran Heroes United in Business (VetHUB) program and the NIGP Commodity/Services Code classification system. The document is issued by the Statewide Procurement Division (SPD) and the Texas Department of Information Resources to assist vendors in identifying and classifying their products and services for state procurement purposes. The NIGP code system organizes procurements into commodity codes (001-899) and service codes (900-999), enabling potential vendors to match their offerings with state purchasing needs through the Centralized Master Bidders List (CMBL) search database.
The guidance explains that vendors should use the NIGP commodity and service code numbering system to properly categorize their products or services when registering with the state's procurement system. Bidders are encouraged to familiarize themselves with the NIGP code book format and contents as they apply to the CMBL search and vendor database, which state purchasing entities use to develop mailing lists for bid distribution. The document directs respondents to the Texas CPA website (mycpa.cpa.state.tx.us) to access the NIGP code book and the CMBL search tool to ensure proper registration and visibility for state contract opportunities.

Veteran Heroes United in Business (VetHUB) Search Assistance
The NIGP Commodity/Services Code, developed by the National Institute of Governmental Purchasing, is used by the state of Texas to classify procurements, and match potential vendors with the state’s needs.
The Statewide Procurement Division (SPD) and Texas Department of Information Resources also use the NIGP code to help purchasers source commodities and services through statewide contracts. The NIGP is organized as follows: Class Codes 001 to 899 are commodities/products and 900 to 999 are services.
Examples:
Commodity Codes:
025‐43: Compressor: High Pressure, All Sizes and Models.
204‐53: Microcomputers, Desktop or Tower based.
Service Codes:
918‐21: Business Consulting 968‐66: Right of Way Services, Including Title, Relocation, Condemnation, etc.

Respondents can use the class‐item numbering and description found in the book to properly code products or services. Bidders are encouraged to become familiar with the format and contents of this book as they apply to the Centralized Master Bidders List search and vendors provided. The CMBL is a master database used by the state of Texas purchasing entities to develop a mailing list for vendors to receive bids based on the products or services they can provide to the state of Texas.
