NIGP 88042: Projectional Supplies: Acetate Sheets, Films, Photo-Reflex and Photo-Modifier Materials, etc.

NIGP 88042 Projectional Supplies: Acetate Sheets, Films, Photo-Reflex And Photo-Modifier Materials, Etc., an Item code, covers consumable materials for presentation, display, and audio-visual use — primarily clear acetate sheets and laminating film, along with complementary supplies such as power distribution equipment, headsets, and mobile carts. State and local governments buy these supplies for classroom instruction, office operations, and public-service delivery. Issuing bodies span city procurement departments, cooperative purchasing vehicles serving school systems, and regional cooperative purchasing platforms. The City of Philadelphia and the Cooperative Purchasing Agency (CPA), a Georgia-based non-profit serving 35 school systems, are both active purchasers. Philadelphia issued a micro-purchase RFQ for Grafix Clear Acetate (B2727805) due August 26, 2026, on a requirements-contract basis through June 30, 2027, with a maximum contract value under $45,000, adjusted annually by CPI-U; CPA issued a bid for audio-visual equipment and supplies (Bid #2027-004) due September 24, 2026, covering acetate film alongside headsets, laminators, batteries, power pods, and mobile carts for school-system distribution.

Geographic activity centers on Georgia and the Mid-Atlantic region, with Sourcewell (a Minnesota local government unit) also soliciting law enforcement equipment through a multi-state cooperative purchasing platform serving Washington state counties (Franklin, Grant, Grays Harbor, Chelan, and Yakima) and other U.S. jurisdictions. Both the Philadelphia and CPA procurements require firm pricing F.O.B. destination with delivery included; Philadelphia's solicitation imposes a 60-day price-validity window and requires an executed Consent and Authorization Agreement prior to bid closing, while CPA enforces net-30 payment terms and considers vendor references, warranty, and delivery performance beyond price. Neither solicitation identifies dollar values, set-asides, or specific quantity commitments; CPA estimates annual quantities ranging from 1 to 2,000 units by item type, subject to actual school-system orders.
