NIGP 54071: Posts, Cedar

NIGP 54071 Posts, Cedar is an Item code that state and local governments are soliciting to establish cooperative purchasing agreements for law enforcement equipment, though the recent activity under this specific code designation is limited. The scope of work encompasses procurement frameworks through which participating public entities — counties, cities, school districts, transit authorities, and other governmental and nonprofit organizations — acquire law enforcement equipment and supplies on standardized terms. Sourcewell, a Minnesota local government cooperative, is the primary issuing body visible in recent activity under this code, operating as a contracting intermediary that aggregates demand across multiple jurisdictions and entity types to negotiate volume pricing and standardized contract terms.

The geographic reach of recent solicitations under this code spans Washington state and includes participation from Franklin County, Grant County, Grays Harbor County, Chelan County, and Yakima County, with the cooperative structure extending availability to public entities throughout the United States and Canada. Sourcewell issued RFP #061626 on May 12, 2026 seeking proposals for law enforcement equipment, with responses due June 16, 2026 at 3:30 p.m. Central Time through the Sourcewell Procurement Portal. The resulting contract(s) are designed to support a broad spectrum of public sector organizations — thousands of governmental agencies, higher education institutions, K-12 school districts, nonprofit organizations, and tribal governments — through a participating addendum structure that allows flexibility in how the established contracting solution is deployed across member entities.
