NIGP 25505: Bar Code Decals

NIGP 25505 Bar Code Decals, an Item code, encompasses labeling products and supplies that state and local governments purchase for filing systems, inventory management, and organizational operations. The scope includes custom-printed labels, color-coded identification systems, numeric and date labels, year labels in multiple color variations, and related file management supplies. State and local issuing bodies soliciting under this code include county sheriff and coroner departments, and the work typically involves competitive bidding for multi-year supply contracts with firm fixed pricing and delivery requirements to multiple departmental locations.

The County of Orange, California, Sheriff-Coroner issued an IFB (solicitation 0603015801MB) in June 2026 for file folders and labels, with a response deadline of March 26, 2026, encompassing nine product categories including custom-printed reinforced end-tab folders, expandable folders, year labels in ten color variations, two-digit and single-digit number labels, and color-coded labels. Annual usage volumes specified include 15,000 custom-printed folders, 5,000 expanding folders combined, and 24 rolls of year labels, with delivery required to the County of Orange Coroner Division and OC Crime Lab. The contract term is three calendar years with an optional two-year renewal, and the County applies a five percent price preference for certified County of Orange Local Small Business (OCLSB) or Disabled Veteran Business Enterprise (DVBE) vendors, with a maximum preference deduction of $100,000 if an OCLSB or DVBE vendor wins. A cooperative purchasing provision permits other governmental and nonprofit entities to use the contract at the same terms with a two percent administrative rebate.
