NIGP 56570: Tape, Border

NIGP 56570 Tape, Border is an Item code under which state and local governments procure decorative and functional border tape for interior finishes, signage, and facility maintenance. The code captures adhesive-backed and non-adhesive border materials used in schools, office buildings, healthcare facilities, and other public properties to delineate spaces, reinforce edges, or add visual trim to walls and surfaces. Issuing bodies across the state and local sector — school districts, city public works departments, county facilities management offices, and state building authorities — solicit border tape through routine purchasing, often bundled with other custodial or maintenance supplies in broader facilities and grounds contracts.

The source provided contains no recent state and local contract opportunities under this code and therefore does not support characterization of geographic concentration, issuing-body frequency, or representative solicitations. This absence of recent activity signals either light procurement volume, fulfillment through standing cooperative purchasing agreements or indefinite-delivery schedules, or consolidation of border tape purchases into larger facilities maintenance or custodial supply contracts where the material does not rise to standalone solicitation.
