NIGP 61517: Box Files

NIGP 61517 Box Files, an Item code, covers filing and storage containers — cardboard, plastic, or metal boxes designed to organize and protect documents, records, and materials in office and archival settings. State and local governments procure these under the code for records management, document retention, and general office organization across administrative departments, courts, health agencies, and school districts. Purchasing patterns reflect routine operational needs rather than project-driven demand: jurisdictions buy box files in standing orders or annual volume contracts to support ongoing document handling, evidence storage, case file management, and historical record preservation. The code appears to attract purchasing from general administrative departments and specialized records-management offices within larger municipalities and state agencies.
