NIGP 20510: Cabinets and Cases: Desktop Cases, Tower Cases, Drive Cabinets, etc., Environmentally Certified Products

NIGP 20510 Cabinets and Cases: Desktop Cases, Tower Cases, Drive Cabinets, Etc., Environmentally Certified Products is an Item code covering physical enclosures for computer hardware and storage media that meet environmental certification standards. State and local governments procure desktop and tower cases, drive cabinets, and related enclosures under this code when building or upgrading IT infrastructure that must comply with environmental performance or sustainability mandates. The environmental certification requirement — typically EPEAT, ENERGY STAR, or equivalent standards — distinguishes this code from general cabinet procurement and reflects the increasing prevalence of green-IT purchasing requirements across state agencies, school districts, and municipal IT departments.

The source provided contains no recent state or local contract opportunities under NIGP 20510. Without posted solicitations to reference, the issuing-body mix, geographic spread, and active vendor landscape remain unclear. Firms interested in this code should monitor state procurement portals and cooperative purchasing vehicles for IT infrastructure and hardware upgrades that explicitly call for environmentally certified enclosures, particularly from state IT departments, education IT consortia, and municipal IT procurement offices.
