NIGP 65267: Razors, Shaper and Straight

NIGP 65267 Razors, Shaper And Straight, an Item code, encompasses personal grooming and hair-care implements that state and local governments procure primarily for vocational and cosmetology education programs. School districts solicit razors, straight shears, clippers, and related cutting tools as part of broader cosmetology training equipment bundles, typically through catalog-discount procurement models that allow district employees to purchase from multiple awarded vendors based on value for specific items. The code sits within larger cosmetology supply acquisitions that include styling tools, manikins, practice hands, and ancillary supplies for classroom and administrative use.

Donna Independent School District in Cameron County, Texas, issued RFP #011326-894 on March 21, 2026, for cosmetology equipment and supplies, due April 8, 2026, seeking discount proposals off printed catalog prices for the 2026-2027 school year. The district's solicitation explicitly requested hair scissors, shear kits, clippers, and neck dusters alongside other cosmetology implements, with a one-year initial term (September 1, 2026–August 31, 2027) and options to extend for up to two additional one-year periods. The RFP contemplates awards to multiple vendors, F.O.B. Destination pricing including shipping and handling, and evaluation based on selection, service, and price, with no minimum purchase guarantees to vendors. Recent activity under this code appears limited to school-district vocational procurement in Texas.
