UNSPSC 15111508: Coal gas

UNSPSC 15111508 Coal gas is a Commodity code that in recent state and local procurement activity is being used to tag law enforcement equipment solicitations rather than coal-derived gaseous fuels. The single recent opportunity in the dataset—Sourcewell RFP #061626, posted May 12, 2026 with a June 16, 2026 deadline—shows a clear misalignment between the code's nominal scope and the work actually being solicited. The RFP seeks to establish a cooperative purchasing agreement for law enforcement equipment available to thousands of governmental agencies, higher education institutions, K-12 school districts, nonprofit organizations, tribal governments, and other public entities across the United States and Canada. This suggests either a cataloging error in the source data or a state and local procurement office using the code outside its intended taxonomy tier, making the code unreliable as a signal for coal gas procurement opportunities.

The geographic scope spans at least Washington state (Franklin County, Grant County, Grays Harbor County, Chelan County, and Yakima County are named) and extends nationwide and into Canada through Sourcewell's cooperative framework. The issuing body is Sourcewell, a Minnesota local government unit and service cooperative operating under Washington state law (RCW 39.34). Vendors must submit proposals exclusively through the Sourcewell Procurement Portal by June 16, 2026 at 3:30 p.m. Central Time. No set-aside designations, award values, or budget ranges are disclosed in the available documentation. The code shows no documented recent activity for actual coal gas procurement; business development professionals should treat this code as inactive for state and local coal gas sourcing and confirm proper UNSPSC coding with state and local procurement offices before investing pursuit effort.
