NIGP 83252: Tape, Masking

NIGP 83252 Tape, Masking is an Item code covering adhesive tape products procured by state and local government agencies for general operational, maintenance, and instructional purposes. State and local buyers source masking tape as part of broader office supply, facilities maintenance, and educational material acquisitions, often bundling it with related adhesives, binding materials, and general supplies rather than procuring it in isolation. School districts, city procurement offices, and county purchasing departments represent the primary issuing bodies under this code, with purchasing typically conducted through competitive IFBs or micro-purchase quotes when volumes or contract values are modest.

Washington County School District issued an IFB (WCSDSG002, due June 22, 2026) for instructional and paper supplies that included adhesives and tape among a comprehensive range of educational commodities; the seven-month contract term ran through January 18, 2027 with pricing guarantees required throughout. The City of Philadelphia issued a micro-purchase RFQ (B2626868, due April 15, 2026) specifically for Black Anti Slip Tape, a specialized variant procured on a shorter cycle typical of city maintenance and safety operations. Recent activity spans school district procurement in Washington State and municipal purchasing in Pennsylvania, with both solicitations reflecting small-to-mid-size contract values characteristic of masking and specialty tape procurement at the local level.
