NIGP 82020: Blow-Off Basins

NIGP 82020 Blow-Off Basins, an Item code, encompasses law enforcement equipment procurement by state and local jurisdictions, as evidenced by recent cooperative purchasing solicitations. State and local governments acquire blow-off basins and related law enforcement equipment through both direct competitive procurement and cooperative purchasing vehicles. The issuing bodies range across county governments, state agencies, school districts, and special-purpose districts participating in multi-jurisdictional purchasing cooperatives. Sourcewell, a Minnesota local government unit and service cooperative, coordinates these procurements on behalf of participating entities to establish contracting solutions available to thousands of governmental agencies, higher education institutions, K-12 school districts, nonprofit organizations, tribal governments, and other public entities.

Sourcewell issued RFP #061626 for Law Enforcement Equipment with responses due June 16, 2026, on behalf of participating counties including Franklin, Grant, Grays Harbor, Chelan, and Yakima in Washington, along with jurisdictions throughout the United States and Canada. The cooperative procurement structure allows selected vendors to supply law enforcement equipment across multiple jurisdictions under standardized contracting terms. Responses were submitted through the Sourcewell Procurement Portal; no set-aside designations, specific award values, or budget ranges were identified in available documentation.
