NIGP 860: Tickets, Coupon Books, Sales Books, Strip Books, etc.

NIGP 860 Tickets, Coupon Books, Sales Books, Strip Books, Etc. is a Class code covering printed materials and transactional documents that state and local governments procure for operational, regulatory, and revenue purposes. The code encompasses fare coupon books for transit systems, citation folders for law enforcement, thermal boarding pass stock and airline bag tags for airport operations, and related printed collateral used in service delivery, fare collection, and administrative compliance. State and local issuing bodies soliciting under this code include transportation authorities, municipal police departments, county airports, and city procurement offices across multiple jurisdictions.

Recent activity reflects narrow but geographically dispersed demand. The Orange County Transportation Authority (OCTA) in California issued an RFQ on September 24, 2026, for OC Access Service Coupon Books on an as-needed basis under a four-year term with a $40,000 budget, with quotes due July 10, 2026 (note: posted date postdates response date in source); the incumbent is Southland Printing, and evaluation is based entirely on cost (100% weight). The Dallas Police Department issued an IFB on July 15, 2026, for citation folders with bids due July 22, 2026, requiring delivery FOB to Dallas Police Quartermaster and Fleet Management. Sacramento County Department of Airports issued an RFP (2026RFP0016, posted September 22, 2026) for airport bag tags, thermal boarding pass stock, and ATB ticket stock on behalf of the Sacramento County Procurement Alliance (SCoPA) cooperative purchasing program, with an initial two-year contract term and three optional one-year extensions. These opportunities span California, Texas, and cooperative purchasing jurisdictions, indicating a fragmented buyer base with sporadic, low-dollar procurement cycles driven by operational replacement and consumable usage rates.
