NIGP 61509: Binders: Chain, Post, Prong, Ring, etc.

NIGP 61509 Binders: Chain, Post, Prong, Ring, Etc., an Item code, covers the supply of binding products and bookbinding services for office and educational use across state and local jurisdictions. State and local governments procure both manufactured binders and custom binding services under this code. Recent solicitations show school districts sourcing standard binders for central warehouse distribution, counties purchasing custom-printed file folders with binding components for law enforcement and records management, and cooperative purchasing organizations aggregating orders across school systems for bulk office supply contracts that include binders alongside paper products and writing instruments. Bookbinding services for county records management, such as work performed for registries of deeds, also fall within the code's scope.

Issuing bodies soliciting under this code include school districts (Jordan School District in Utah, Washington County School District), county governments (Norfolk County Commissioners in Massachusetts, Orange County Sheriff-Coroner in California), state agencies (State of Florida correctional system), and cooperative purchasing vehicles serving multiple school systems (Cooperative Purchasing Agency, Georgia). Recent opportunities span Utah, Massachusetts, California, Georgia, and Florida. Representative recent solicitations include Jordan School District's September 2026 RFQ for binders, notebooks, and pads for central warehouse supply with a contract term through September 30, 2027; Orange County Sheriff-Coroner's June 2026 IFB for custom-printed and expanding file folders with binding components, due March 26, 2026; the State of Florida's May 2026 ITB for custom inmate classification file folders across correctional institutions, due July 31, 2026; and Norfolk County Commissioners' September 2026 solicitation for bookbinding services for the Registry of Deeds, due October 14, 2026.
