UNSPSC 44102107: Stamp affixers

UNSPSC 44102107 Stamp affixers (Commodity) covers mail-processing and document-finishing equipment that state and local governments procure to automate high-volume outbound correspondence — specifically folder/inserter machines, mail sorters, postage meters, and related mailroom systems that handle folding, inserting, sealing, and addressing of multi-page government documents, newsletters, billing statements, and bulk mail pieces. The code encompasses both capital equipment purchases and leases, ongoing maintenance and repair services, consumable supplies (ink, toner, postage meter rental), software licensing, and integration support. Issuing bodies include county governments (San Mateo County), cities (Fort Worth), state departments (New Jersey Department of the Treasury, State of Arizona), community college districts (Collin County Community College District), and school districts (Dayton Public Schools). Cooperative purchasing vehicles also solicit under the code, including TIPS USA (Texas Intergovernmental Purchasing Cooperative), NASPO ValuePoint (multi-state program), and Sourcewell (Minnesota-based service cooperative). Recent activity shows a mix of single-location RFQs and RFPs alongside statewide and regional cooperative purchasing opportunities designed to serve multiple member agencies.

Recent opportunities span the Southwest, South, and Midwest.
