UNSPSC 20101601: Screens

UNSPSC 20101601 Screens is a Commodity code that, based on recent state and local solicitation activity, covers environmental gas extraction and refrigerant recovery services rather than physical screening products. The City of Tucson Environmental and General Services Division issued RFP No. 240011 for EPA-certified refrigerant reclaimer services, targeting extraction of gases from approximately 50 units per week at the Los Reales Sustainability Campus. Work under this code involves EPA-certified technicians extracting refrigerants (including Freon and mixed gases) from collected appliances and products on a scheduled basis, with comprehensive documentation of gas destruction or recycling. Contractors must maintain EPA-approved recovery equipment, ensure all technicians hold proper EPA certification, and comply with Federal Transit Administration terms and conditions including disadvantaged business enterprise participation provisions.

The City of Tucson in Pima County, Arizona represents the primary recent issuing body on record. RFP No. 240011 closed on September 19, 2024, and offered an initial one-year contract term with up to four additional one-year renewals. A pre-submittal conference was scheduled for March 19, 2024, via Microsoft Teams. The solicitation structured pricing with separate line items for Freon, mixed gas, and refrigerant extraction, plus hourly labor rates for general operating hours, after-hours work, and holiday service. No specific budget range was disclosed, and no incumbent vendor was named. The scope reflects municipal commitment to sustainable gas management practices at a campus-level collection facility, with extraction frequency set at minimum every two weeks.
