NIGP 08045: Folders, Presentation

NIGP 08045 Folders, Presentation is an Item code covering flat printing and presentation folders that state and local governments procure as standalone commodities or as components of broader office supply and employee recognition programs. Recent solicitations show purchasing offices and program administrators acquiring standard presentation folders in bulk quantities—typically double-pocket styles in 9-by-12-inch dimensions—alongside custom-printed variants, personalized award recognition folders, and related print finishing services. Issuing bodies under this code include city procurement departments (particularly Philadelphia's purchasing office) and county human resources or employee services divisions. The work involves production, packaging, and delivery of folders to meet departmental office supply needs, library program support, and employee recognition initiatives.

Philadelphia's City Purchasing Department has posted two recent folder solicitations: a flat printing bid (B2727925, due September 8, 2026) for double-pocket folders supporting the Pennsylvania Department of Education's Library Services for the Visually Impaired and Disabled program, and a micro-purchase (B2727804, due August 24, 2026) for presentation folders on a one-year requirements contract valued at up to $45,000 with CPI-U adjustment. Walworth County, Wisconsin issued an RFP (26-069, due July 20, 2026) for an Employee Service Recognition Awards Program that includes personalized recognition folders and certificates as part of a broader gift and awards package for employees reaching service milestones. Pennsylvania and Wisconsin account for the most recent documented activity; Philadelphia appears as a repeat buyer across multiple folder procurement cycles. Award decisions are made on a whole-or-line-item basis to the lowest responsive and responsible bidder, with standard insurance and business licensing requirements, and vendors must quote all line items to be eligible.
