NIGP 25167: Recycled Data Processing Cards and Paper, Environmentally Certified Products

NIGP 25167 Recycled Data Processing Cards And Paper, Environmentally Certified Products is an Item code representing supplies that state and local governments buy for office and operational use, though the recent solicitation activity under this code does not align cleanly with the NIGP description. The three most recent postings in the block—spanning airport bag tags and thermal boarding pass stock, grapple and roll-off container services for waste management, and voter data validation—do not represent recycled data processing cards or environmentally certified office products. The Sacramento County Department of Airports RFP 2026RFP0016 solicits bag tags and automated ticket and boarding pass stock through a cooperative purchasing vehicle (Sacramento County Procurement Alliance, or SCoPA), but this appears to be a data alignment or classification error rather than a reflection of active procurement under the legacy NIGP definition. The issuing bodies in the block span county government (Sacramento County, Clay County, Jefferson County) and city government (City of Pasadena), with one county operating through a formal cooperative purchasing alliance. No recent state department, school district, or transit authority postings appear in the block.

Geographic activity in the recent postings is concentrated in California (Sacramento County, City of Pasadena) and Florida (Clay County), with one opportunity in Kentucky (Jefferson County). The Sacramento County opportunity (RFP 2026RFP0016) is open to SCoPA member entities for a two-year initial contract with three optional one-year extensions, issued August 17, 2026 with a September 3, 2026 bid due date; Clay County's RFB 2526110 for container services closes September 3, 2026 with bid opening September 4, 2026 and a three-year initial term plus two one-year renewals starting October 1, 2026; and Jefferson County Clerk's Office RFP 270024 for voter data validation closed August 14, 2026. The source does not support a characterization of whether this code's recent posting activity reflects typical procurement under NIGP 25167 or represents a classification anomaly.
