UNSPSC 14111523: Tracing paper

UNSPSC 14111523 Tracing paper is a Commodity code representing specialty and general-purpose paper products that state and local governments actually procure for operational, administrative, and educational use. Recent solicitations show that issuing bodies buy a wide range of paper stock beyond traditional tracing paper—including carbonless forms, bond and sulphite papers, copy paper, colored multi-purpose paper, cardstock, parchment, and cover stock in multiple weights, sizes, and finishes. County and school district procurement offices are the primary buyers under this code, typically sourcing materials for central warehouses, print shops, and district-wide administrative operations. The solicitations emphasize bulk ordering on an as-needed basis with fixed pricing over multi-year contract terms and annual renewals, suggesting that state and local bodies treat paper procurement as a routine, recurring operational expense managed through competitive ITB processes.

Milwaukee County, Wisconsin and Marion County Schools, Florida are the two most recent issuing bodies active under this code. Milwaukee County released an Invitation to Bid (ITB-2026) on February 10, 2026, for paper products and supplies for the Community Reintegration Center Print Shop in Franklin, Wisconsin, with 50 line items and a response deadline of February 24, 2026; the contract period runs March 1, 2026, through February 28, 2027, with up to three one-year renewal options. The School Board of Marion County, Florida posted Bid #4153AM on February 2, 2026, for multi-purpose paper serving the District's Central Warehouse in Ocala, with 31 line items, a January 14, 2026 response deadline, and a ten-month contract term from March 1 through December 31, 2026. Both solicitations require FOB Destination delivery within tight timeframes, fixed pricing across the contract term, and detailed product specifications including brightness, weight, and finish attributes. Geographic activity concentrates in the Midwest and Southeast, with Wisconsin and Florida as confirmed recent markets.
