NIGP 25570: Windshield Decals, Numbered

NIGP 25570 Windshield Decals, Numbered is an Item code that encompasses the production and supply of decals for vehicle identification, permitting, and regulatory compliance used by state and local agencies. State and local governments procure numbered windshield decals and related decal products—including taxicab permit decals, inspection decals, pedicab decals, and donation box decals—primarily through centralized purchasing cooperatives and municipal procurement offices. The work involves design, printing, typesetting, and fulfillment of decals to specification, with vendors typically evaluated on pricing, compliance with technical specifications, and delivery terms. Issuing bodies under this code include school districts and education service centers operating cooperative purchasing vehicles, municipal departments with regulatory and permitting functions (such as transportation and taxi regulation divisions), and regional purchasing cooperatives that aggregate demand across multiple member entities.

Recent activity shows concentrated demand from Texas, where Region 7 Purchasing Cooperative (serving education entities across the cooperative's network) posted a catalog discount bid solicitation for educational activities and supplies (EDACT2628) due July 30, 2026, with an estimated $40.677 billion in total expenditures over a two-year term through August 20, 2028, and the City of Houston's ARA Department sought printing and typesetting services for multiple decal types (INF20260198, due June 1, 2026). The cooperative purchasing vehicle mechanism features prominently, with Region 7 noting 136 previous awards and requiring electronic submission through its purchasing portal. Individual municipal demand also surfaces, as seen in Houston's single-department procurement. Geographic visibility concentrates in Texas; activity in other states or regions does not appear in the recent-opportunities block.
