NIGP 57580: Recycled Microfiche and Microfilm Equipment, Accessories and Supplies

NIGP 57580 Recycled Microfiche And Microfilm Equipment, Accessories And Supplies is an Item code covering refurbished or secondhand microfiche and microfilm equipment, components, and consumables that state and local governments procure for archival storage, records management, and document retrieval operations. The code captures a narrow but persistent segment of procurement activity tied to agencies that maintain legacy microform collections or operate hybrid paper-and-microform filing systems. Issuing bodies under this code include state records management offices, county recorder and clerk departments, municipal archives, and school district central offices responsible for long-term document retention. The scope includes reconditioned microfilm readers, microfiche readers, film cartridges, fiche jackets, scanner-to-film equipment, and related maintenance supplies sourced from secondary markets or refurbishment vendors rather than new-equipment channels.

The source provided contains no recent state or local contract opportunities posted under this Item code. Without posted solicitations, the geographic spread and current market demand for recycled microform equipment cannot be characterized from recent activity.
