UNSPSC 20111700: Drilling and operation accessories

UNSPSC 20111700 Drilling and operation accessories, a Class code, encompasses law enforcement equipment and related operational supplies being solicited through cooperative purchasing vehicles that serve multiple state and local jurisdictions simultaneously. The code is being used to tag broad law enforcement equipment procurements, though the recent solicitation activity shows a mismatch between the code's nominal scope (drilling and operation accessories) and what state and local agencies are actually buying under it — specifically, law enforcement equipment for police and public safety departments. Issuing bodies using this code include cooperative purchasing units operating under state statutes (such as Sourcewell, a Minnesota local government unit and service cooperative) that aggregate demand across multiple jurisdictions, counties, school districts, and other public entities to establish master contracts available to thousands of governmental agencies, higher education institutions, K-12 school districts, nonprofit organizations, and tribal governments.

Sourcewell issued RFP #061626 for Law Enforcement Equipment on May 12, 2026, with a response deadline of June 16, 2026, on behalf of participating entities including Franklin County, Grant County, Grays Harbor County, Chelan County, and Yakima County in Washington state, along with numerous other jurisdictions throughout the United States and Canada. The procurement is being advertised under Washington law (RCW 39.34) and uses the Sourcewell Procurement Portal exclusively for document distribution, vendor registration, question submission, and proposal upload. The resulting contract is structured as a participating addendum framework allowing flexibility in deployment across member entities rather than a single-award vehicle. No set-aside designations, incumbent vendor names, award values, or budget ranges were identified in the available solicitation materials.
