UNSPSC 20111708: Drill stems

UNSPSC 20111708 Drill stems (Commodity) sees minimal recent state and local procurement activity aligned with its nominal scope. The one recent opportunity tagged to this code—Sourcewell RFP #061626, posted May 12, 2026, due June 16, 2026—is a law enforcement equipment cooperative procurement benefiting participating county governments (Franklin, Grant, Grays Harbor, Chelan, and Yakima counties in Washington), K-12 school districts, higher education institutions, municipal governments, tribal governments, and other public entities across the United States and Canada. The solicitation establishes a framework contract for law enforcement equipment broadly construed, not drill stems specifically. The mismatch between the code's nominal scope and the actual work being solicited suggests either miscoding on the state or local side or use of drill stems as a minor line item within broader law enforcement equipment procurement.

Sourcewell, a Minnesota local government unit and service cooperative, is procuring on behalf of its participating entities under Washington state cooperative purchasing law (RCW 39.34). The RFP requires submission through the Sourcewell Procurement Portal by June 16, 2026 at 3:30 p.m. Central Time; vendors must create a free account to access solicitation documents and submit responses. No set-aside designations, award values, or budget ranges are disclosed in available documentation. The resulting contract is structured as a framework agreement available to participating entities for future utilization through addenda, meaning the vendor's market reach extends across multiple government types and jurisdictions if awarded. Geographic concentration is evident in the named Washington counties (Franklin, Grant, Grays Harbor, Chelan, Yakima), with broader potential across the United States and Canada through the cooperative structure.
