UNSPSC 14111531: Log books or pads

UNSPSC 14111531 Log books or pads is a Commodity code covering office supplies stationery items that state and local governments purchase for administrative, classroom, and operational use. The scope encompasses receipt books, notebooks, pads, and related bound paper products typically acquired as part of broader office supply procurement programs. State and local purchasing offices, school districts, and cooperative purchasing agencies serving multiple jurisdictions represent the primary issuing bodies under this code. School systems and their cooperative purchasing vehicles appear to drive significant activity, procuring log books and pads for classroom inventory, administrative record-keeping, and standardized office operations across dozens of individual districts through centralized bid processes.

Geographic activity centers on Georgia, where the Cooperative Purchasing Agency (CPA), a Georgia-based non-profit cooperative serving 35 school systems, posted Bid 2027-006 for office and desktop supplies on August 10, 2026, with a response deadline of September 29, 2026. The CPA solicitation encompasses approximately 150+ line items of office supplies including receipt books, envelopes, file folders, fasteners, writing instruments, markers, binders, and storage solutions, with estimated annual quantities ranging from 1 unit to 7,000 units depending on product type; physical samples are mandatory for most items unless bidders propose CPA's currently carried brand or a previously approved brand. Delivery is due within 30 days of purchase order issuance to CPA's warehouse in Cleveland, Georgia, with all pricing quoted F.O.B. destination and payment terms Net 30. CPA reserves award authority based on vendor relations, past performance, service, warranty validity, customer feedback, product performance, and brand changeover costs rather than lowest price alone; new vendors must submit W-9 forms and three references if applicable.
