NIGP 62085: Pen and Pencil Sets, Including Combo Type

NIGP 62085 Pen and Pencil Sets, Including Combo Type is an Item code covering bundled writing instruments — typically multi-piece assortments combining ballpoint pens, pencils, mechanical pencils, or hybrid pen-and-pencil combinations sold as matched sets rather than individual units. State and local governments procure these sets for office supply distribution, employee gifts, promotional use at public events, and classroom or training environments where standardized writing-instrument kits streamline inventory management. The code captures both basic utility sets and higher-end combo packs with specialized nibs or finishes. Issuing bodies include state procurement offices, county purchasing departments, city supply bureaus, school districts, and special-purpose agencies; no single buyer category dominates based on available recent activity.

The source provided contains no recent state and local contract opportunities solicited under this code, making current market activity and geographic concentration impossible to characterize from posted notices.
