UNSPSC 44121806: Correction pen refills

UNSPSC 44121806 Correction pen refills, a Commodity code, covers writing correction supplies that state and local governments procure as part of broader office and stationery inventories. In practice, the code appears in mixed office-supply portfolios where correction pens are one line item among many — receipt books, envelopes, file folders, fasteners, markers, binders, and storage solutions — rather than as standalone procurement actions. The buying bodies include school districts (both direct and through cooperative purchasing vehicles), county offices, and municipalities that consolidate office supply needs into periodic competitive bids. Correction pen refills represent a small, routine consumable within these broader solicitations.

The most recent activity centers on Georgia through the Cooperative Purchasing Agency (CPA), a non-profit cooperative serving 35 school systems. In August 2026, CPA issued Bid 2027-006 for office and desktop supplies, due September 29, 2026, which encompassed correction pen refills as one of approximately 150 line items with estimated annual quantities ranging from 1 to 7,000 units depending on the product. The contract runs January 1 through December 31, 2027, with delivery expected within 30 days of purchase order issuance and pricing quoted F.O.B. destination to CPA's warehouse in Cleveland, Georgia. Award criteria include vendor relations, past performance, service, warranty validity, customer feedback, and product performance — lowest price is not the sole criterion. No other recent state or local opportunities are apparent in the source, suggesting the code sees limited standalone activity outside cooperative purchasing frameworks.
