NIGP 62085: Pen and Pencil Sets, Including Combo Type

NIGP 62085 Pen and Pencil Sets, Including Combo Type, an Item code, covers writing instrument assortments — pens, pencils, and mixed writing-tool sets — that state and local governments procure for office operations, educational programs, and administrative use. State and local buyers source these items through routine supply contracts, typically bundled with broader office-supply or stationery requisitions rather than as standalone solicitations. Purchasing offices at the state, county, and municipal level, along with school districts and special-purpose agencies, draw on this code when refreshing inventory or outfitting new facilities. The code sits within a broader commodity family for writing supplies and office materials that sees consistent, low-velocity demand across most jurisdictions.

The source provided contains no recent state and local contract opportunities specific to this Item code. Activity under NIGP 62085 typically flows through standing supply agreements, cooperative purchasing vehicles, or blanket purchase orders rather than time-bound RFP, RFQ, IFB, or ITB notices, making this code a spot-buy or renewal category rather than a primary target for new business development at the state and local level.
