UNSPSC 44121701: Rollerball pens

UNSPSC 44121701 Rollerball pens is a Commodity code under which state and local governments procure writing instruments and related desk supplies for office, educational, and operational use. Recent solicitations show the code capturing purchases of disposable styluses for voting systems, office writing instruments within broader supply bundles, and specialty writing tools—work that extends beyond traditional ballpoint or rollerball pens into capacitive-touch styluses, markers, and related desktop supplies. Issuing bodies active under this code include county purchasing divisions, cooperative purchasing agencies serving school systems, and education-focused procurement consortia. Gwinnett County Financial Services Purchasing Division and Cooperative Purchasing Agency (CPA), a Georgia-based non-profit cooperative serving 35 school systems, represent the recent buyer base.

Activity is concentrated in Georgia, where Gwinnett County's solicitation for 250,000 disposable styluses for voting systems (RFQ PE77023NONST2027000000770, due October 5, 2026) and CPA's office supplies bid covering 150+ line items including writing instruments (IFB CPA's 2027-006, due September 29, 2026) anchor current procurement. The Gwinnett County stylus purchase, previously awarded to Top Choice International Trading Corp. at $0.08 per unit with total value of $80,160, calls for bilingual-printed (English/Spanish) or unprinted capacitive-touch styluses with silicone tips, delivered in two phases (100,000 units by October 16, 2026, and 150,000 units by October 23, 2026) on FOB destination terms. CPA's bid encompasses writing instruments as part of a broader office and classroom supplies contract running through December 31, 2027, with delivery expected within 30 days of purchase order issuance and pricing quoted FOB destination to Cleveland, Georgia.
