UNSPSC 44121605: Tape dispensers

UNSPSC 44121605 Tape dispensers (Commodity) covers office supplies tape dispensers that state and local governments procure as components of broader office and instructional supplies catalogs. State and local buyers do not typically solicit tape dispensers in isolation; instead, they appear as line items within consolidated purchasing vehicles for general office supplies, school supplies, and classroom materials. School districts and county purchasing departments are the primary issuing bodies under this code, often bundling tape dispensers with writing instruments, paper products, adhesives, filing materials, and classroom equipment in single RFP or IFB notices.

Recent activity shows tape dispensers solicited as part of multi-item office and instructional supplies contracts. Washington County School District issued an IFB (WCSDSG002, due June 22, 2026) requesting bids for instructional and paper supplies with multiple anticipated contract awards; the scope included tape dispensers alongside crayons, markers, copy paper, folders, scissors, basketballs, and other classroom and office items, with contract performance running through January 18, 2027. Gwinnett County, Georgia posted a local-vendor preference catalog discount solicitation (PE77021NONST2027000000216, due October 16, 2026) for an office supplies catalog that encompasses tape dispensers within a broader range of supplies. Georgia and other southeastern jurisdictions represent the geographic concentration in recent postings, though the code appears to see limited standalone activity — tape dispensers materialize primarily as subordinate items in consolidated educational and office supplies contracts rather than as standalone procurement vehicles.
