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

NIGP 20433 Drives, Compact Disk (CD Rom, DVR, Etc.), an Item code, encompasses physical media formats including DVDs, Blu-ray discs, music CDs, and CD-based audiobooks that state and local governments procure for public libraries, educational institutions, and digital content distribution. Recent solicitations show governments buying these materials either as components of bundled library collection services—where vendors provide cataloging, physical processing, barcoding, and shelf-ready delivery alongside the media itself—or as discrete equipment elements within broader technology infrastructure procurements for educational and administrative facilities. County library systems and community college districts dominate the recent buyer activity, with the County of Orange, California appearing twice in current solicitations (one for comprehensive physical library materials including multiple CD formats delivered through 2026, another for digital content platforms effective 2026) and Valencia College District in Florida seeking classroom technology systems that incorporate disc-based and disc-like delivery mechanisms as part of integrated audiovisual ecosystems across nine campuses.

Geographic activity centers on California and Florida, with secondary activity in the District of Columbia and Florida's regional transit authorities. The County of Orange's Request for Proposals for Physical Materials for OC Public Libraries (posted May 2026, due May 7, 2026) solicits DVDs, music CDs, audiobooks on CD, and Playaway devices alongside print materials for 29 branches, with vendors required to deliver cataloging records, physical processing, and online ordering portals; the contract runs five years from September 15, 2026, with no guaranteed minimum order quantities and compensation structured as firm fixed-fee usage pricing. Valencia College District's RFP 2026-26 for Classroom & Conference Room Technology Services (posted April 6, 2026, due April 30, 2026) encompasses disc-based and wireless media delivery across approximately 900 classrooms and conference rooms, with the College averaging $1.6 million in annual spending and seeking a three-year initial term with two optional one-year extensions. Both solicitations require demonstrated experience serving comparable public institutions and offer local business enterprise and disabled veteran enterprise scoring preferences under their respective county programs.
