UNSPSC 20121424: Seal bores or polished bores

UNSPSC 20121424 Seal bores or polished bores is a Commodity code that spans precision-machined cylindrical components used in law enforcement and public-sector equipment applications. State and local governments procure these bores as component parts integrated into specialized equipment systems rather than as standalone products, as evidenced by their inclusion in a broad cooperative purchasing vehicle for law enforcement equipment. The issuing bodies under this code span multiple jurisdictional types — state cooperative purchasing units (such as Sourcewell, a Minnesota local government unit), county governments, school districts, and other public entities participating in multi-state and multi-type purchasing consortia that aggregate demand across thousands of potential end-users.

Sourcewell issued RFP #061626 on May 12, 2026 with a response deadline of June 16, 2026, seeking law enforcement equipment to support participating entities including Franklin County, Grant County, Grays Harbor County, Chelan County, and Yakima County in Washington, plus numerous other jurisdictions and public bodies throughout the United States and Canada. This cooperative purchasing arrangement channels component and equipment procurement through a single contracting vehicle administered under Washington state law (RCW 39.34), allowing vendors to reach multiple state and local customer segments — counties, K-12 school districts, higher education institutions, tribal governments, and nonprofits — through a single framework agreement. The solicitation structure reserves resulting contracts for deployment through participating addenda, creating ongoing vendor access to a distributed customer base without requiring separate RFPs for each entity.
