NIGP 25155: Paper, Tabulating Stock, Environmentally Certified Products

NIGP 25155 Paper, Tabulating Stock, Environmentally Certified Products, Item code, covers blank thermal boarding pass stock, automated ticket paper, and related thermal printing supplies that state and local governments—particularly airport authorities and transit agencies—procure for passenger ticketing, boarding documentation, and bag-tag operations. The code captures the consumable paper products used in high-volume, time-sensitive transportation environments where thermal printing meets regulatory documentation requirements.

Sacramento County Department of Airports is actively soliciting under this code through a cooperative purchasing vehicle, the Sacramento County Procurement Alliance (SCoPA), which extends contract awards to other participating governmental, educational, and nonprofit entities. The solicitation (2026RFP0016) requests proposals for bag tags, thermal paper, and blank Automated Ticket and Boarding Pass (ATB) stock on an initial two-year term with options for three additional one-year extensions. The County reserves the right to issue one or multiple contracts on a line-item basis and does not guarantee minimum purchases. Response to this RFP was due May 21, 2026. No geographic spread beyond Sacramento County is evident from the recent-opportunities block, and no additional issuing bodies soliciting under this code appear in the available record. The cooperative purchasing structure indicates potential for expanded vendor reach and contract utilization across multiple public agencies if the lead contract succeeds, though SCoPA participation remains limited to the jurisdictions explicitly enrolled in the alliance.
