UNSPSC 24102107: Cartoning machinery

UNSPSC 24102107 Cartoning machinery is a Commodity code covering folding, inserting, sealing, and related mail-processing equipment that state and local governments procure for high-volume mailroom operations. Recent solicitations show government buyers purchasing folder/inserter machines, mail sorters, postage metering systems, mail addressing and labeling equipment, and integrated mailing systems with associated maintenance, software, and consumable supplies. The scope spans both purchase and lease arrangements, with contracts including equipment, installation, software licensing, training, maintenance options (annual service contracts and per-call hourly support), and supplies. Issuing bodies range from county governments and cities to state agencies, community college districts, school districts, and statewide cooperative purchasing programs. The activity reflects broad geographic spread across state and local procurement offices rather than concentration among a few buyers.

Recent opportunities include San Mateo County's RFQ (2027RFQ00168, due November 9, 2026) for a folder/inserter machine purchase with installation and ongoing maintenance; the City of Fort Worth's RFP 26-0300 (due October 1, 2026, extended by addendum) for a mailroom equipment lease supporting 36,795 pre-sort letters monthly with SendSuite Tracking integration and a 30% small business participation goal; the State of New Jersey Department of the Treasury's ITB T0200 (due October 23, 2026) for mailroom equipment, supplies, and maintenance statewide, requiring Original Equipment Manufacturer or Authorized Dealer status with New Jersey service facilities; and NASPO ValuePoint's master-agreement RFP BPM007409 (due June 23, 2026) for mailing and shipping equipment, technology, and maintenance across 44 product categories available to all 50 states and eligible public entities. Additional activity includes cooperative purchasing vehicles—TIPS USA's approved-vendor-list solicitation for printing and mailing solutions (260704, due August 21, 2026) and Sourcewell's law-enforcement equipment RFP (061626, due June 16, 2026)—alongside school-district and city-level procurements. Recent activity appears concentrated in Texas, California, New Jersey, Arizona, and Nevada, with representation from school districts in Ohio and cooperative purchasing programs serving multi-state jurisdictions.
