NIGP 20433: Drives, Compact Disk (CD ROM, DVR, etc.)

NIGP 20433 Drives, Compact Disk (CD ROM, DVR, Etc.), an Item code, encompasses the physical media and digital distribution infrastructure that state and local governments procure to deliver content to schools, libraries, and other public institutions. Recent solicitations show this code capturing purchases of optical media formats (DVDs, Blu-ray, music CDs, audiobooks on CD) as part of broader library material collections, as well as licensing of proprietary digital platforms that deliver eBooks, audiobooks, and digital content through device-neutral systems. The issuing-body mix leans heavily toward school districts and public library systems. Salt Lake City School District is sole-sourcing a five-year contract with OverDrive, Inc. for digital library services delivering eBooks, digital audiobooks, and proprietary content through an integrated platform; DeSoto County School Board of Education in Mississippi posted an unpriced proposal solicitation with limited scope details available; and Orange County, California's public library system is soliciting physical materials in multiple formats including DVDs, Blu-ray, music CDs, and audiobooks on CD and Playaway devices as part of a five-year RFP with board-approval thresholds at $200,000 annual or $1,000,000 total contract value.

Activity under this code clusters in California, Utah, Mississippi, and Texas. The Salt Lake City School District sole-source notice (DH2710ODSS, due September 14, 2026) cites OverDrive's proprietary platform and exclusive content access—particularly Harry Potter in multiple languages—as the justification for single-source award at an estimated $9,400 annual value. Orange County's RFP (0123029901JG, originally due May 7, 2026) sought physical materials across 29 library branches plus one satellite, requiring cataloging in AACR2 or RDA format, shelf-ready processing with barcoding and security tagging, and per-unit pricing with discounts off manufacturer's suggested retail price; the County applies five percent scoring incentives for Orange County Local Small Business (OCLSB) and Disabled Veteran Business Enterprise (DVBE) certifications. A Texas Department of Information Resources RFO for Apple Branded Products and Related Services (DIR-CPO-TMP-561, due November 19, 2021) demonstrated historical statewide sales of $949.35 million across state agencies, local governments, and higher-education institutions, with HUB subcontracting goals at 21.1 percent.
