NIGP 60079: Poster Making Machines and Equipment

NIGP 60079 Poster Making Machines And Equipment, an Item code, encompasses specialty printing equipment including poster makers, die-cut machines, and ID printers that state and local governments procure for instructional, operational, and administrative use. Recent solicitations show school districts sourcing these machines alongside related software, hardware, supplies, and maintenance as part of broader educational technology and career technical education procurement. The issuing bodies include K-12 school districts as primary buyers, with cooperative purchasing vehicles like Sourcewell also facilitating equipment procurement on behalf of multiple jurisdictions and participating public entities across states.

Activity under the code appears limited in recent postings. Dysart Unified School District in Arizona issued an RFQ (Solicitation 27007) due July 1, 2026, requesting quotations for specialty printing machines including poster makers, die-cut machines, and ID printers with related supplies and maintenance support. Klein Independent School District in Harris County, Texas issued an RFP (RFP 26-101) due June 5, 2026, for Career Technical Education and Advanced Academics resources that encompassed instructional equipment across multiple program areas, which may include poster-making and specialty printing equipment as part of arts and communications or other specialized instruction. Sourcewell's cooperative RFP 061626, due June 16, 2026, for law enforcement equipment available to participating entities nationwide could include specialty printing equipment for administrative use but is not primary to that procurement. The code sees activity across the Southwest and South-Central United States, though the recent-opportunities block does not support sufficient transaction volume to characterize market concentration or trend.
