NIGP 25070: Roll Paper, Bond (for EDP Portable Terminals)

NIGP 25070 Roll Paper, Bond (For EDP Portable Terminals), an Item code, covers thermal paper and related consumables used in portable point-of-sale terminals and ticketing systems operated by state and local agencies. Recent solicitations show school districts and county transit authorities buying thermal paper stock alongside POS terminal hardware and peripherals to support cafeteria operations, parking, and passenger boarding functions. The work centers on supplying blank thermal paper rolls compatible with mobile and stationary POS devices, often as part of broader equipment procurement cycles that include terminals, keyboards, cash drawers, and pin pads. Issuing bodies include school districts, county departments of airports and transportation, and municipal agencies managing public facilities where ticket issuance or transaction recording occurs.

Hillsborough County Public Schools posted an ITB (26048ITBDST) in February 2026 for point-of-sale terminals and peripherals supporting Student Nutrition Services, due March 23, 2026, which encompasses thermal paper requirements alongside 2,360 units of terminal and peripheral equipment across seven line items. Sacramento County, Department of Airports, issued an RFP soliciting bag tags, thermal paper, and automated ticket and boarding pass stock for a two-year initial contract term with three optional one-year extensions, structured through the Sacramento County Procurement Alliance (SCoPA) cooperative purchasing program to serve multiple participating governmental and educational entities. Activity concentrates in California and Florida based on recent postings, with school districts and county departments representing the primary buying jurisdictions for thermal paper and POS consumables under this code.
