NIGP 61660: Office Supplies, General (Not Otherwise Classified), Environmentally Certified Products

NIGP 61660 Office Supplies, General (Not Otherwise Classified), Environmentally Certified Products is an Item code under which state and local governments procure consumable and durable office supplies—pens, pencils, highlighters, staplers, paper clips, binder clips, notepads, sticky notes, scissors, tape dispensers, folders, binders, and related standard materials. Recent solicitations show cities, school districts, and county purchasing offices issuing RFQs and IFBs for comprehensive office supply packages, typically as single-vendor or multi-item awards with pricing on a per-item basis and volume flexibility. The City of Lompoc has posted RFQ 2025RFQ023DW for 42 distinct basic office supply items; the City of Pasadena's Department of Parks, Recreation, and Community Services issued IFB 2025IFBMS0055 for a three-year general office supplies contract (with two one-year extension options) covering 63 supply items and approximately 20 annual orders across multiple city facilities. Both municipal procurements emphasize vendor qualifications including current insurance (General Liability and Workers' Compensation in the $500,000 to $1,000,000 range), local business tax registration, and compliance with city procurement processes. Klein ISD posted a warehouse inventory solicitation requesting electronic proposals for office supplies, indicating school district participation in the code.

Geographic activity centers on California and Texas. The City of Lompoc (Santa Barbara County, California) and the City of Pasadena (Los Angeles County, California) represent recent California municipal activity. Klein ISD operates in Texas. Response deadlines for recent opportunities range from April 2025 through October 2025, with the Pasadena IFB closing April 14, 2025 and the Lompoc RFQ closing October 24, 2025. Neither issuer specified contract values or incumbent vendors in available documentation. Both municipal RFQ and IFB documents require vendor compliance with local procurement platforms, conflict-of-interest and non-collusion affidavits, and in Pasadena's case, prevailing wage ordinance compliance and HUD Section 3 labor standards for contracts over $25,000.
