NIGP 251: Data Processing Cards and Paper, Environmentally Certified by an Agency Accepted Certification Entity

NIGP 251 Data Processing Cards And Paper, Environmentally Certified By An Agency Accepted Certification Entity is a Class code with minimal recent state and local solicitation activity directly targeting this commodity. The source material contains no formal RFP, RFQ, IFB, or ITB notices specifically procuring data processing cards, paper, or related environmentally certified products. The one substantive procurement record present—the City of Milpitas IFB 26-229 for Maintenance, Repair, and Operating (MRO) supplies—addresses janitorial and facilities paper products (including blanket purchase orders for custodial supplies and janitorial paper items required to comply with California Assembly Bill 661 and Senate Bill 1383 recycled-content standards, minimum postconsumer recycled content ranging from 10% to 45% depending on product type) rather than data processing cards and paper. The Milpitas solicitation is a five-year blanket purchase agreement with response due August 4, 2026, and covers multiple MRO supply categories; while janitorial paper compliance with state recycled-content mandates is explicit, the narrower scope of NIGP 251 (data processing cards and environmentally certified paper) is not separately solicited or itemized in that notice.

The remaining opportunities in the source consist of networking events (Marion County Reverse Trade Show, Central Florida NIGP Reverse Trade Show, Collin County Vendor Meet & Greet, Pasco County How to Do Business, FAPPO Annual Trade Show), educational forums (Williamson County Vendor Forum, Indian River County Vendor Open House), and vendor feedback surveys—none of which constitute active procurement of data processing cards or certified paper products. Geographic presence is fragmented across Florida, California, Texas, and New Hampshire based on the networking and educational events listed, but no sustained procurement demand signal exists for NIGP 251 at the state or local level in the available data. Watch this code for janitorial and facilities paper compliance activity in states with strong recycled-content mandates; direct data processing card and paper procurement under this specific code does not appear in current activity streams.
