NIGP 09520 Barber Shop Sterilizers and Sterilizing Jars, an Item code, encompasses equipment used to sterilize and store tools and instruments in barber shops and similar personal-care settings. Based on recent state and local procurement activity, the code sees use primarily through cooperative purchasing vehicles and multi-jurisdictional solicitations that bundle equipment procurement across diverse agency types. The issuing bodies under this code span state cooperative purchasing units such as Sourcewell (a Minnesota local government unit), county governments, and other public entities seeking standardized procurement solutions for law enforcement and operational equipment.

Sourcewell issued RFP #061626 on May 12, 2026, with a response deadline of June 16, 2026, to establish a contracting solution for law enforcement equipment available to participating entities including Franklin County, Grant County, Grays Harbor County, Chelan County, and Yakima County in Washington, alongside thousands of governmental agencies, higher education institutions, school districts, nonprofit organizations, and tribal governments across the United States and Canada. Submissions were required through the Sourcewell Procurement Portal at https://proportal.sourcewell-mn.gov. The solicitation did not disclose specific award values, set-aside designations, or budget ranges in available documentation. The resulting contract would establish a framework agreement for future utilization through participating addenda with Sourcewell, allowing flexibility in how the contracting solution is deployed across participating entities.
