UNSPSC 20121718: Overshot control

Lever for adjusting an overshot grapple.

UNSPSC 20121718 Overshot control, a Commodity code, covers law enforcement equipment procurement by state and local government agencies, including tactical gear, protective equipment, and specialized law enforcement apparatus. The single recent opportunity in the source—a Sourcewell cooperative purchasing vehicle managed by the State of Minnesota on behalf of participating counties and public entities across the United States and Canada—indicates that this code is being applied to broad-spectrum law enforcement equipment sourcing rather than to a narrowly defined mechanical component. State and local issuing bodies soliciting under this code include county sheriff offices and regional cooperative purchasing units; the Sourcewell structure enables participation from thousands of governmental agencies, K-12 districts, higher education institutions, tribal governments, and nonprofit organizations across multiple jurisdictions.

Sourcewell's RFP #061626 for Law Enforcement Equipment, posted May 12, 2026 with a response deadline of June 16, 2026 at 3:30 p.m. Central Time, represents the primary recent activity. The solicitation explicitly identifies participating Washington counties (Franklin, Grant, Grays Harbor, Chelan, and Yakima) but establishes a cooperative framework with nationwide and Canadian scope, indicating geographic spread across at least the Pacific Northwest and broader U.S. regions. Submissions are restricted to Sourcewell's Procurement Portal; no budget or award value is disclosed in available documentation, and no set-aside or disadvantaged-enterprise designations are identified. The resulting contract(s) will be available to participating entities through addenda, leveraging collective buying power across multiple public-sector organizations.
