UNSPSC 52121606: Place mats

UNSPSC 52121606 Place mats (Commodity) covers branded promotional items and giveaways for state and local agencies, though recent solicitations under this code show the work spans a broader range of merchandise—ink pens, canvas tote bags, tablecloths, key tags, wristbands, lanyards, chip clips, and frisbee fans—rather than place mats specifically. The Illinois Secretary of State has posted two recent RFQs for the Organ Donor Program seeking these eight product categories in specified unit volumes, each branded with the "Life Goes On" logo. Vendors supply items in one or more of the eight categories and must carry general commercial liability insurance of $1 million per occurrence and $2 million annual aggregate, auto liability coverage of $1 million, and workers' compensation insurance as required by law. Award is made to the lowest-priced responsive and responsible bidder submitting complete quotes for all line items in the chosen category.

Illinois is the primary issuing body visible in recent activity under this code. The two most recent opportunities are both from the Illinois Secretary of State: RFQ 26-350SOS-SOS35-B-52561, due May 22, 2026, and the amended rebid RFQ 26OD204000, due June 4, 2026, with a final delivery date of August 15, 2026 FOB Destination to Springfield. The May solicitation required union print-shop production and included a "Made in USA" requirement; the June rebid removed both the union requirement and the domestic-sourcing mandate. Contract term runs from execution through June 30, 2026, with the May RFQ permitting renewal options not exceeding ten years total. Prevailing wage requirements and standard Illinois certifications apply to printing services. Historical pricing from prior bid cycle 26-350SOS-ORGAN-B-48433 is available through BidBuy to inform vendor proposals.
