UNSPSC 41111510: Postal scales

UNSPSC 41111510 Postal scales, a Commodity code, encompasses postage metering equipment and mail processing services that state and local governments procure to manage outbound and intra-agency correspondence. Based on recent state and local solicitation activity, the code reflects demand for USPS-authorized postage metering equipment leasing and high-speed mail sorting services purchased through third-party providers operating under State of Florida contracts or equivalent cooperative purchasing arrangements. The issuing bodies pursuing these services include county government offices, particularly purchasing and information technology departments that centralize postage management across multiple agencies.

A Florida county issued an RFI (BLD6232026F10) posted June 23, 2026, with a response deadline of July 1, 2026, to determine whether postage metering equipment and USPS-authorized mail processing services are available from multiple vendors or whether a sole-source designation for Pitney Bowes Inc. would be appropriate. The solicitation covers leasing of postage metering equipment and high-speed sorting services for the Office of Information Technologies and various county agencies, with emphasis on legal compliance, operational efficiency, and competitive rates through a State of Florida contract vehicle. The RFI structure—a notice of intent to designate sole source rather than a binding purchase order—signals that the county is testing the market for alternative providers before committing to a single vendor relationship. Recent activity in this code remains limited to the documented Florida county opportunity; geographic reach and issuing-body breadth cannot be characterized beyond that single jurisdiction.
