NIGP 12545: Foils, Lettering and Stamping

NIGP 12545 Foils, Lettering And Stamping is an Item code under which state and local governments procure food-service packaging materials, wrapping supplies, and related foodstuff containers for institutional nutrition programs. The Conejo Valley Unified School District's recent RFP demonstrates the scope: the District is seeking vendors to supply 180 line items of paper products and food containers — including food containers, utensils, bags, wrapping materials, portion cups, take-out containers, and related supplies — distributed across 29 school sites serving over 15,000 students annually. School districts emerge as the primary issuing bodies under this code, given the central role of child nutrition procurement in institutional foodservice operations.

The code shows activity in California. Conejo Valley Unified School District in Ventura County posted RFP 2026-03 on April 23, 2026, with a response deadline of May 13, 2026. The District requires F.O.B. Destination pricing on all items, Monday-through-Friday delivery to a central kitchen and nine school sites, and compliance with California Department of Public Health, USDA Food Commodity Program, and FDA labeling requirements. The initial contract term runs July 1, 2026, through June 30, 2027, with two optional one-year renewals. Proposals are evaluated on pricing (40 points), ability to provide requested items (20 points), proposal completeness (20 points), and vendor reputation and references (20 points). No set-aside designations are identified in the RFP, and the District reserves the right to purchase all, some, or none of the listed items on an as-needed basis under open purchase order with no guaranteed award value.
