UNSPSC 20121725: Casing cutter

Heavy cylindrical apparatus bearing knives, and run on a string of tubing or drill pipe into a well, to perform cutting on the inner walls of a pipe through rotation, thus freeing a pipe section.

UNSPSC 20121725 Casing cutter is a Commodity code that captures cutting tools and equipment for tactical and law enforcement operations purchased by state and local jurisdictions. State and local governments procure casing cutters and related law enforcement equipment through cooperative purchasing vehicles managed by entities like Sourcewell, a Minnesota local government unit and service cooperative. These solicitations typically target a broad cross-section of public-sector buyers—counties, municipalities, school districts, tribal governments, and nonprofit organizations—rather than a single issuing body, leveraging cooperative frameworks to standardize contracting across multiple jurisdictions simultaneously.

Sourcewell issued RFP #061626 for Law Enforcement Equipment on behalf of its Participating Entities, with a response deadline of June 16, 2026. The solicitation encompassed Franklin County, Grant County, Grays Harbor County, Chelan County, and Yakima County in Washington state, along with thousands of other governmental agencies and public entities throughout the United States and Canada. This cooperative purchasing structure allows selected vendors to supply law enforcement equipment solutions across a distributed network of buyers while maintaining standardized contracting terms and conditions. Submissions were required through the Sourcewell Procurement Portal at https://proportal.sourcewell-mn.gov, with questions directed to Mari Vielma at rfp@sourcewell-mn.gov or 888-894-1930. The solicitation did not explicitly identify set-aside designations, award values, or budget ranges in available documentation.
