NIGP 60088: Typewriters, Manual, Accessories and Parts

NIGP 60088 Typewriters, Manual, Accessories and Parts is an Item code that appears to see minimal direct procurement activity under its traditional scope; the single recent opportunity indexed under this code is a cooperative purchasing RFP issued by Sourcewell, a Minnesota local government unit and service cooperative, for law enforcement equipment — a solicitation that does not specifically target manual typewriters or related accessories but rather encompasses a broader law enforcement category that may include legacy equipment or ancillary items. The code appears underutilized in current state and local procurement, with no recent opportunities explicitly requesting typewriter procurement or component sourcing as a primary objective.

Sourcewell issued RFP #061626 on behalf of participating entities including Franklin County, Grant County, Grays Harbor County, Chelan County, and Yakima County in Washington state, along with other jurisdictions and public entities throughout the United States and Canada, with proposals due June 16, 2026 at 3:30 p.m. Central Time. The cooperative purchasing structure targets thousands of governmental agencies, higher education institutions, K-12 school districts, nonprofit organizations, tribal governments, and other public entities. Vendors must submit through the Sourcewell Procurement Portal; no set-aside designations or specific award values are identified in available documentation. The absence of dedicated manual typewriter solicitations in recent months reflects the decline in legacy office equipment procurement across state and local government.
