NIGP 70027: Folding, Scoring, and Perforating Equipment

NIGP 70027 Folding, Scoring, and Perforating Equipment is an Item code covering machinery used to process paper and similar substrates through folding, scoring, and perforation operations—work state and local governments buy in relatively modest volume to support in-house print shops, document processing centers, and administrative operations. The equipment typically serves internal finishing workflows rather than high-volume commercial production; buyers include state print and document-management shops, county clerk offices, school districts with centralized printing facilities, and municipal purchasing departments that manage their own collateral production. State departments of administration, state printing offices, and centralized service agencies dominate the buyer base when they maintain dedicated print operations.
