NIGP 23243: Kits and Supplies: Mosaic

NIGP 23243 Kits And Supplies: Mosaic, an Item code, covers art and craft supply procurement for state and local arts, recreation, and education programs. State and local governments buy under this code assembled collections of materials such as paints, brushes, markers, papers, craft supplies, and specialty items—often sourced through term contracts or annual agreements that bundle multiple SKUs at discounted catalog pricing. Issuing bodies span parks and recreation departments, school districts, and municipal consolidated governments seeking supplies for after-school programs, community centers, special populations, and general classroom or facility use. Vendors typically must maintain adequate warehouse stock, guarantee delivery within specified timeframes (commonly ten days), and provide pricing as a percentage discount off published catalogs or per-unit pricing with all freight and handling included.

Recent activity shows procurement concentrated in the Southeast, with Columbus Consolidated Government in Georgia issuing RFB No. 26-0014 in February 2026 (due February 25, 2026) for arts and craft supplies supporting its Parks and Recreation Department's after-school, community, and seniors programs with estimated annual volume of $30,000 to $50,000, and the School Board of Marion County, Florida issuing Bid #4150AM in February 2026 (due January 14, 2026) for approximately 215 line items of art materials for its central warehouse covering ten months of operations. Both opportunities favor term contracts with award to multiple vendors and are open to all qualified bidders; neither names explicit set-aside programs. Vendors responding face compliance requirements including Consumer Product Safety Act certification, Commercial General Liability Insurance in the $1 million range, and E-Verify participation, with delivery to specified locations during restricted business hours and acceptance of electronic payment methods.
