UNSPSC 44122105: Binder or bulldog clips

UNSPSC 44122105 Binder or bulldog clips, a Commodity code, shows minimal recent state and local procurement activity directly aligned with its nominal scope. The single recent opportunity posted under this code—Hancock County Board of Education's June 2026 IFB for School Nutrition Chemical & Paper products—centers on food service disposables, cleaning supplies, and institutional paper goods for school cafeteria operations rather than office fasteners or binder clips. The itemized bid list includes portion cups, compartmented trays, utensils, food service films, detergents, trash liners, and mop heads, none of which align with binder or bulldog clip procurement. This mismatch suggests the code may have been applied incorrectly to the solicitation or that state and local purchasing offices tag broader commodity bundles without precision to narrow Commodity-level codes.

The Hancock County Board of Education (Sparta, Georgia) issued the IFB with a June 26, 2026 response deadline and anticipated award within 60 days of bid opening scheduled for June 29, 2026. The contract runs July 1, 2026 through June 30, 2027 and covers food service needs across three school locations. Buy American sourcing compliance is required, and insurance and debarment verification thresholds apply. The IFB permits piggybacking by other school districts on identical terms. Given the absence of additional recent opportunities under this code and the scope mismatch in the single posting, procurement professionals should treat this code as inactive for binder and clip acquisitions in current state and local markets and verify category assignments when pursuing opportunities nominally tagged to it.
