NIGP 64655: Ledger Paper (Including Recycled), Environmentally Certified Products

NIGP 64655 Ledger Paper (Including Recycled), Environmentally Certified Products is an Item code covering ruled and unruled ledger sheets and pads that state and local governments procure for accounting, financial recordkeeping, and general administrative use, with increasing adoption of recycled and environmentally certified stock. The code encompasses standard columnar paper products—including multi-column accounting pads, general-purpose ledger sheets, and specialty formats for payroll, budget, and expense tracking—along with environmentally preferable alternatives such as chlorine-free, FSC-certified, or post-consumer waste content options that jurisdictions specify to meet sustainability mandates or green procurement policies.

No recent state or local opportunities under NIGP 64655 appear in current procurement notice channels. This code typically reflects low-frequency, low-dollar commodity purchasing routed through existing blanket orders, cooperative purchasing agreements, or vendor standing arrangements rather than competitive solicitations. Activity when present spans state purchasing offices, county administrative departments, municipalities, school districts, and special-purpose districts, with procurement often consolidated at the state contract level or handled through office-supply GPOs rather than issued as individual RFPs or IFBs.
