State and local governments buy these items as consumable office supplies, typically through vendor catalog agreements that bundle them with broader office product lines rather than as standalone specialty purchases. Issuing bodies soliciting under this code include county purchasing offices exercising local-vendor preferences and leveraging cooperative or catalog-based procurement vehicles to manage costs and standardize supply chains across departments.
