NIGP 62010: Desk Sets, Inkstands, Penholders, Pen Points, etc. (see 615-33 for Desk Accessories)

NIGP 62010 Desk Sets, Inkstands, Penholders, Pen Points, Etc., an Item code, covers office desk accessories and organizational products that state and local governments procure for workspace outfitting and administrative functions. Recent solicitations show governments buying assembled desk sets, pen holders, inkstands, and related desk-mounted organizational items as part of broader office furniture and supply refresh cycles. Issuing bodies soliciting under this code include municipal procurement offices; the City of Philadelphia's recent activity indicates that smaller cities manage these purchases as micro-buys under threshold values, often bundling multiple desk accessory line items into single RFQ or IFB notices where awards go to the lowest responsive and responsible bidder on a whole-contract or line-item basis. Vendors responding to these solicitations must meet standard municipal requirements including general liability insurance (minimum $500,000 per occurrence), workers' compensation at statutory limits, and compliance with nondiscrimination ordinances and ethics rules.

The City of Philadelphia issued RFQ B2727783 on August 17, 2026 for office furniture (including desk sets and related accessories) with a quote deadline of August 22, 2026 and a maximum contract value less than $45,000, adjusted annually by CPI-U. Delivery was FOB Destination to the South Philadelphia Branch at 1700 South Broad Street, with all shipping and freight charges included in quoted prices and no pricing modifications permitted after bid opening. Quotes were submitted electronically through PHLContracts, with vendor submission through the web portal required and a 60-day quote validity period. The contract term was limited to 365 days from issuance of a purchase order, with payment made via electronic deposit only after delivery and City approval. No other recent state or local opportunities under this code appear in the source.
