UNSPSC 20121425: Side pocket mandrels

UNSPSC 20121425 Side pocket mandrels is a Commodity code that shows minimal recent state and local procurement activity aligned with its nominal scope. The two most recent opportunities posted under this code involve gas extraction and refrigerant reclamation services and law enforcement equipment procurement — neither of which represents side pocket mandrel procurement or related drilling and well-servicing consumables. State and local government buyers do source drilling components and well-servicing supplies, but the recent record under this specific code does not demonstrate active demand for side pocket mandrels or related products in the state and local market during the present cycle.

The City of Tucson Environmental and General Services Division posted an RFP (No. 240011) on September 30, 2026, for EPA-certified refrigerant reclamation services at its Los Reales Sustainability Campus, with a response deadline of September 19, 2024, and Sourcewell (a Minnesota cooperative purchasing entity) posted an RFP (No. 061626) on May 12, 2026, for law enforcement equipment on behalf of multiple Washington and other jurisdictions, with a response deadline of June 16, 2026. Neither opportunity connects to the code's stated commodity. The mismatch suggests either a coding error in the source data or a substantial gap between the code's intended scope and recent state and local buying patterns. Firms evaluating this code should verify current procurement intent through state department of transportation or energy agencies and direct outreach to county public works departments in Texas, Oklahoma, and other oil and gas regions before committing business development resources.
