NIGP 78077: Postal Scales, Conventional

NIGP 78077 Postal Scales, Conventional is an Item code covering postage metering equipment and mail processing services that state and local governments acquire to manage outbound mail operations across multiple departments and agencies. The scope of work under this code includes leasing USPS-authorized postage metering equipment and access to high-speed mail sorting services, typically procured through third-party USPS mail processing providers operating under state cooperative purchasing contracts. Issuing bodies include county purchasing offices and municipal departments of information technology coordinating mail services across multiple agencies within their jurisdiction.

A Florida county posted an RFI (Request for Information) on June 23, 2026 — notice of intent to designate Pitney Bowes Inc. as sole source for postage services and USPS-authorized mail processing equipment, with responses due July 1, 2026 — seeking to determine whether comparable alternatives or multiple suppliers exist for postage metering and high-speed sorting services under a State of Florida contract vehicle. The recent-opportunities block supports no additional solicitations under this code beyond this single Florida county RFI.
