NIGP 12510: Bindery Supplies

NIGP 12510 Bindery Supplies, an Item code, covers consumable materials and supplies used in binding and finishing printed documents—including binding equipment consumables, adhesives, covers, fasteners, and related finishing materials that state and local governments procure on an as-needed basis for in-house print shops and document management operations. The work solicited under this code involves supplying materials that enable public agencies to bind, laminate, and finish documents internally rather than outsourcing the entire bindery function. Issuing bodies include transit authorities, county departments, and other state and local public agencies maintaining print-shop operations; the Orange County Transportation Authority (OCTA) is a recent buyer.

The Orange County Transportation Authority posted an RFQ on June 22, 2026 (Solicitation 250265) seeking bindery supplies for delivery to its Print Shop in Orange, California on an as-needed basis with an $8,000 annual budget for the one-year term July 1, 2026 through June 30, 2027. The incumbent is United Binding & Laminating under Contract C54041. OCTA requires new materials only (refurbished or used items prohibited), firm-fixed pricing for the entire contract term with no increases permitted, and delivery to a facility with a 4,000-pound freight-elevator capacity and no loading dock; the vendor bears offloading responsibility. Respondents must certify non-subjection to Ukraine/Russia-related economic sanctions under Presidential Executive Orders 13660, 13661, 13662, 13685, and 14065. Vendors must carry commercial general liability ($1,000,000 per occurrence / $2,000,000 aggregate) and automobile liability ($1,000,000 combined single limit) insurance. Award goes to the lowest responsive and responsible firm on a lump-sum basis; firms bidding fewer than all line items are deemed non-responsive.
