UNSPSC 44103106: Ink sticks

UNSPSC 44103106 Ink sticks, a Commodity code, does not reflect the actual procurement activity in the recent state and local solicitations tagged with this code. The opportunities in the dataset overwhelmingly center on toner cartridges, ink cartridges, copy paper, printer supplies, and related office consumables—not ink sticks. The mismatch between the nominal code name and the work being solicited suggests this code sees little relevant recent activity, or the code has been misapplied to opportunities in the broader printer supplies and consumables family.

State and local governments purchasing under or near this code tier are issuing bodies spanning school districts, counties, cities, regional educational service agencies, and state procurement offices across multiple states including Georgia, Texas, California, Washington, and Missouri. Representative recent opportunities include Griffin Regional Educational Service Agency's IFB for art materials, office supplies, copy paper, ink and toner cartridges (due November 6, 2026); Gwinnett County Board of Commissioners' competitive sealed bid for OEM toner and inkjet cartridges (due September 14, 2026); Texas Comptroller of Public Accounts' statewide IFB for toner cartridges and printer supplies for Texas Department of Criminal Justice (due August 20, 2026); and Rockwood School District's RFB for OEM toner cartridges with a five-year term commencing November 1, 2026. Geographic concentration appears heaviest in Georgia and Texas, with material activity in California, Missouri, and Washington. The procurement pattern reflects routine office supply replenishment at fixed or near-fixed intervals, with contract terms ranging from one year with optional renewals to multi-year fixed agreements.
